About Acorn Leisure Chair Vrijetijdsstoel
Acorn Leisure Chair is een multifunctionele zitplaats geïnspireerd op de vorm van een eikel. De rugleuning volgt de kromming van de menselijke rug en ondersteunt een correcte zithouding voor lezen en andere rustige activiteiten. Het frame is gemaakt van massief hout, gevormd door computergestuurd snijden en handmatig schuren, en afgewerkt met metalen lijnen die door handmatige verhitting worden gebogen. De houten en metalen onderdelen worden met beslag verbonden en kunnen voor transport uit elkaar worden gehaald. Een grote open ruimte onder de zitting kan worden gebruikt voor opslag of als rustplek voor huisdieren.
