Type A Dining Chair (set of 2) by Alphaville DesignThe Series A Side Chair debuted in 1955 at the H55 exhibition in Sweden as the Type A Dining Chair, and the appeal of what remains one of the most copied chairs of the modern era is its shape. The chair is ideally suited to the human body, its seatback has a comfortable "give" and its waterfall seat edge doesn't press into legs. Arne Jacobsen, who was instilled with a love of materials, shaped the core of Danish design identity when he accommodated three different bends in one piece of plywood, simply by narrowing the chair back. Once made by hand, production is now automated and led by a team from Alphaville Design to ensure that the reproduced Series 7 is perfect every time. Suitable for contract use and stacks 6 high. |
