Johan Ansander’s OM presents a generously slender seat supported by minimal construction. OM is light, nimble, and very comfortable.
An expertly moulded piece of plywood turns the hind legs into an accommodating backrest. The same thinly cut plywood is used for the front legs and the enclosing rim, all with a precise geometry that allows for a play of shadows and light to set off the lightness of the design even further.
“My aim was to offer a generous seating experience with very few components, and with the backrest as one visually open piece,” says designer Johan Ansander. “The seat had to be roundish in shape, not rectangular, in order to arrive at the right visual balance.”
OM is reminiscent of classic furniture designs by the hands of Michael Thonet and Alvar Aalto with its simplicity and ingenious way of shaping wood. At only 4.5kg, OM is an ideal lightweight chair and is made in European oak or ash with optional dyed colours and padded seats.
