PAIR OF SLAT LOUNGE CHAIRS

A sled base — two parallel runners angled back into a deep, generous recline — carries horizontal pine slats across both seat and back, each one slightly proud of the last as the backrest climbs. No upholstery, no padding, no softening of the intention. The wood is the comfort.

The sled base is the structural move that makes it work: stable, low, and architecturally resolved, it keeps the chair grounded while the splayed geometry of the frame keeps it from reading as heavy. The exposed hardware — small bolts at each slat — is left unadorned. The whole thing is the kind of honest construction that was briefly a design philosophy before it became an aesthetic. The pine has aged into exactly the color it was always going to be.
