Woodland
Woodland is a coat rack chair designed for small living areas and entryways. The chair combines ergonomic seating with practical storage. Branch-shaped armrests act as hooks for coats, bags and accessories. The curved backrest wraps around the sitter like tree branches. Woodland is made from sustainable hardwood and recycled steel, with a non-toxic matte black finish. The wood is hand-bent to form the curved shape, and the joints are reinforced for stability under load. The design turns the common habit of placing clothing on a chair into tidy storage.
