Junk Chair

Repurposing existing objects makes design more accessible and sustainable, fostering a deeper connection with everyday items.

The Junk Chair exemplifies this by combining elements from different design eras: an old plywood chair, reconstructed classic armrests, and a modern stool base. This blend promotes active sitting and offers both flexibility and stability.

The chair features a gas lift for height adjustment and armrests for convenience, accommodating various body types and sitting habits. Its design encourages dynamic movement, reducing discomfort from prolonged sitting. The construction is simple, allowing individuals of any skill level to recreate it, with the chair itself serving as a customisable construction manual.

By merging vintage and contemporary elements, the Junk Chair embodies a thoughtful and practical approach to furniture design, promoting a closer relationship with the objects around us.
