Jia Chair

This folding lounge chair’s design conceals the main folding mechanism with two pieces of wood, resulting in a minimal aesthetic when the chair is stored. Triangular holes of varying sizes are punched into the leather section, gradually expanding from the four corners under stress to the centre and providing more breathability. Made of outdoor materials, the Jia Chair can withstand all weather conditions. The chair’s folding hardware uses a very simple mechanical method that is easy to manufacture and the product’s aluminium alloy material makes it lightweight. The main material employed is Iroko wood, which is suitable for outdoor use. When the chair is folded and stored, it becomes quite compact and is appropriate for storage in a car for outdoor trips. The Chinese character “梜” (jia) means “chopsticks”, an idea that is reflected in the chair’s name. Red Dot Award: Design Concept | Concept | Home Furniture
