BassamFellows Wood Frame Armchair
Craig Bassam designed the Wood Frame Dining Collection to be remarkably lightweight and sophisticated without interfering with comfort. This was achieved by reducing the form of the chair to its essence – an exposed structural fine wood frame that integrates all elements of the chair, connecting seat, back and arms while creating a ‘caged’ effect. The wood elements produce the chair’s distinctive side profile and back view, two of the most important angles of any dining chair when viewed around a table. The outer corners are softly rounded, a BassamFellows signature, and the exposed rear frame becomes both a handle to maneuver the chair without touching the upholstery and a convenient place to hang a jacket or sweater. Cushions have also been slimmed to the absolute minimum without sacrificing comfort. The backrest is structural but designed with a non-rigid upper frame to keep its profile as thin as possible while building in flex for movement.
