Iris is a chair produced by a compilation of Ms. Mitsui’s pursuit in creating furniture for many years.
Slits are provided in formed plywood, which Mr. Paul Kjærholm also used, and two boards of
formed plywood are overlaid with their slits oriented alternately to create regularly spaced square
holes at the intersecting areas of the slits. It requires high technique that accurately overlaying two
boards of formed plywood and forming of a chair by fixing the formed plywood with the side frame
which is integrated with legs. Although a hard material of formed plywood is used, the smooth
line from the seat surface to backrest fits well with the body and offers a soft seating experience.
Various manufacturers have produced this chair in the past. This time, under full cooperation of
one manufacture in Yamagata Prefecture, we were able to produce this chair with high degree of
completion.
