Simple, bright, and confident, the chair is an everyday chair. chair, which means “straightforward” or “clear” in Italian, reflects the design’s modest character and the designer’s distilling of the form to the essence of what a chair should be—familiar, comfortable, and beautiful. chair’s uncomplicated character also shows through in the chair’s construction. Connections between parts are direct and efficient; the structure under the seat resulted from a need to simplify the joinery while reducing the number of parts.
