The Bamboo Chair by Tejo Remy and Rene Veenhuizen defies convention thanks to its complex and curvilinear design. This limited edition furniture piece is made in Holland by the Dutch designer duo who experiments with thin bamboo strips that are overlapped and moulded to create a chair that is both aesthetically striking and comfortable for its user.
Mixing aesthetics with pracitcality, the Bamboo Chair by Tejo Remy and Rene Veenhuizen is a sustainable seat that is created using a versatile, durable and eco-friendly material. The designers conceived its form through a process of ancient Asian weaving techniques that were merged with a traditional Dutch aesthetic.
This chair is not only boldly sculptural but is also practical thanks to its lightweight design and sustainable material that resists changing temperatures and wear that is caused over time.
