Wood
Design Åke Axelsson
Wood is made from beech from sustainably managed forests. The components are made with a traditional steaming technique that uses a minimal amount of wood.

Wood is packed disassembled in a recyclable cartonboard in order to reduce transport volume and thereby carbon dioxide emissions. Wood is lightweight and comfortable and meets the highest requirements for both product durability and environmental sustainability. Wood is available in untreated or waxed beech, or with a ecolabelled stain in black, white, dark brown or red. The back can be upholstered in a choice of vegetable tanned leather, sheepskin or cotton canvas.

CRAFT I, II
Design Åke Axelsson
Chair and armchair in natural or stained ash. Seat in fabric or leather. An elegant, well made chair in a classical timeless model with a high level of craftsmanship. The seat’s innovative solution with a shaped felt cushion and wadding combined with the design of the back sections makes Craft especially comfortable.
