A lightweight chair inspired by old aircraft constructions.

Maple wood construction with airplane-plywood seat and back. The chair is made with the thought in mind to create a lightweight chair in wood. 

The 2 timber sideframes out of simple small beams work together with the plywood engineered seat and back. Together they make a light, clear, functional and good proportioned construction.

A technical tour de force searching for the boundries of designing in wood. 

A form with character, made with an eye for detail like the traditional halved joints. 

The plywood seat and back construction is cleverly engineered, it bends a little acting as suspension making the chair more comfortable. 

The first prototype weighs 1,4 kg and is made out of solid pine with 4 mm birch triplex. The production model is in solid maple or beech with birch plywood.

The Aerowing Flywood comes in an open and closed version (seat and back), aswell as in a high and low version.
