Light and ethereal shell with a prosaic and grounded steel base
Ash, steel and leather
The Mollis chair is a gentle and pliantly conceived piece of furniture that derives from form studies about light and ethereal shell with a prosaic and grounded steel base. By creating a gap between the steel frame and the shell the form is accentuated and the profile becomes significant.
