1 Skin Chair
The Moroso 1 Skin Chair by Ron Arad shapes beech plywood into a continuous seat and back, supported by powder-coated tubular steel.
Three-dimensional bending gives the shell its pronounced curves and folded front edge. The slim metal structure leaves the sculpted wood visible, making the relationship between shell and frame central to the chair’s design.
Every detail, considered.
