How can a rigid surface become comfortable?

Chair Rigid explores the balance between aesthetics, material hardness, and physical comfort. The project focuses on how a rigid material can be shaped and engineered to support the body ergonomically while maintaining a visually restrained form.

The study of bending plywood and rigid surface behavior became the central design investigation behind Chair Rigid.
