Mass

Mass is a light weight chair that has a distinctive structural expression with a fine diagonal line through square frame. Chair is constructed with European oak at our workshop and seat and back finished with natural linen webbing.

In Japan, we have a code character 〼 to read “masu”, originating from the old measurement tool for rice and other produces, a wooden box with diagonal divide in the middle which looks like this character. It has a sweet crossover of definitions between English word mass and Japanese word masu.

Testing and making

The dining chair design was developed together with the lounge version, and the final sample of this is currently in the progress.
