one piece chair

by tomoo nitta from japan

designer's own words:

Inspired by origami, this form was born from the playful yet skillful manipulation of paper.
The One-Piece Chair, tailored from a single square sheet of plastic, gently accepts the weight of a person by flexing slightly, thereby employing the characteristic of the material.
