His designs are characterized by organic forms, refined finishes and a scandinavian influence, often executed in teak. His furniture pieces, including the "a" armchairs, combine elegance and functionality. The "a" armchairs have a slim teak frame in typical a shape, geometric armrests and a comfortable upholstered seat. The slightly sloping backrest ensures optimal seating comfort, while the refined design makes these armchairs timeless design pieces.
