Chair Anatomy - Design and Construction by James Orrom

Chairs are the design pieces that most of us use most of the time, from offices to dining tables, from lounging to working, the importance of good chair design to our well-being cannot be underestimated. Accordingly, designers and architects, who seek solutions to space, comfort and function, have grappled with making the perfect - or most unusual - chairs for centuries. But we only really see the end product, and have little idea of how our chair was made, or even perhaps, why it is special. Chair Anatomy reveals in photos and illustrations the form and the construction details.
