This armchair was conceived by Piet Kramer, its frame constructed from wood, and upholstered in a synthetic green fabric. The entire structure is composed of horizontal lines, which gives the chair a sleek, geometric look. Imagine the craftsman in his workshop, meticulously selecting each piece of wood. What was he thinking as he hammered those tiny studs into the fabric? It's as if the chair itself is a built landscape. I'm reminded of Mondrian and his grids. What does it mean to create such a controlled, precise form? The wooden frame invites you to sit, and think, to take a moment, while also being a solid functional everyday object. Kramer’s chair makes us think about the boundaries between art, design, and life.
