SUMAC AND ZIKZAK

DESIGN: NIELS JØRGEN HAUGESEN, ÆRESMEDLEM / HONORARY MEMBER  /  MADE BY HAY
Two apparently identical chairs, but...

Sumac
A springy chair where the tubular frame and the woven seat back combine to ensure the necessary stability and give the chair its springy effect.

Zikzak
A chair with a fixed cross back and less springiness.
