The Plooop Chair by Timothy Schreiber has officially launched at the Stockholm Furniture Fair this week. Succeeding the sleek Plooop Armchair, which debuted last year at London’s 100% Design , the Plooop Chair features the unique triple plywood loop formation Schreiber deftly crafts in this series. By applying CNC-assisted cutting along with advanced traditional craftsmanship he creates a work of seamless quality with a contemporary edge. I love how the plywood separates where the arms meet the back, yet the harmony of the design is continuous.

When it came in the mail I was so excited — the beautiful way it is bound with string, so simple with a handmade feel. Sorry for the terrible photos, but it’s hard to take photos of a book, especially when you’re a bad photographer to begin with
