Brooklyn-based designer Nicholas Baker worked on a chair design that could be easily recognisable from a simple black and white silhouette. To achieve this, he sketched a single diagonal line from the side and pulled out the chair seat and back leg. Nicholas then took the idea to virtual reality to recreate it from a single rectangular plane. The compound curvature allowed him to create a thin edge for the chair while keeping it structurally sound. The result is a free-flowing form bound by an iconic linear frame. The Super Chair—composed of 100% recycled polypropylene—is produced by Damiano Latini and was presented at Salone del Mobile 2023.
