Sold Out

Bent plywood chair manufactured in Toronto by Ambient Systems. Black painted plywood seat, armrest and legs. Original removable cushion for the seat. Few scratches of the armrests.

“I designed this seating system in 1973 shortly after returning to Canada, from studying in Sweden. That Nordic influence is obvious. I was working for Muller + Stewart at that time, as a junior designer. Michael Stewart contributed the clever serrated connector as well as critical overall guidance. The objective was to make a comprehensive system without requiring too many parts. The leg and arm are identical in everything except length, minimizing tooling and inventory. Parts can be connected in various ways to yield diverse configurations. The intended market was student common area furnishing for the community collages being built at that time.” - Paul Epp
