Award-winning works
Judges' comments
The award was unanimously decided based on opinions such as "straight lines, clean, beautiful and simple" and "ordinary but with good details." This was the only chair to win the award, with other designs dominating the top spots.
"This piece is close to the shape of a typical chair and has a simple, pure appearance that expresses the essence of a chair. I think it is a worthy piece of work that pays tribute to the value of wood." (Anne Louise Sommer)
"Flat Chair is all about minimizing our impact on the environment." (Tucker Wiemeister)
"The simple 'Flat Chair' is a work of exquisite craftsmanship that expresses structural beauty very well." (Michael Young)
Designed by Hirayama Household Goods Store
By sandwiching molded plywood, which has excellent stability, between solid wood, which allows for sharp lines and fine joint processing, we have created a comfortable chair that does not feel strange when sitting down.
The clear structure, which deliberately shows the joints where the molded plywood and solid wood meet, elevates the design to the next level. We believe that the most important thing in chair design is comfort, and that the form should be born from function. We aimed to design a chair that does not sacrifice comfort, using the smallest elements that make up a "chair."
