THEO is a comfortable wooden, high-density stacking chair that weighs only 4 kg yet features high stability and durability. Every part of the chair communicates the qualities of wood and the technologies used in its manufacture. The elegant simplicity and highly resolved nature of the chair belie its technical complexity. The thin ply-formed backrest and the leg frames were designed to flex, dissipating load by acting as springs.

THEO fascinates with its plain, elegant design that illustrates its own manufacturing method and is marked by a sophisticated flexing mechanism.
