Product description
Concept
Ply-ply is an all-purpose wooden chair. The chair's few components are both structurally functional and give the piece a unique visual identity.
Materials: Plywood, birch
Availability: Prototype
About the designer:
Jani is currently studying both spatial and furniture design at the University of Art and Design Helsinki UIAH and architecture at the Helsinki University of Technology. He works at an architecture office and does his own design work with Mikael Mantila. Together they have designed the interior of Restaurant Via in Helsinki.
Imu is Finland’s self-appointed National Design Team representing young Finnish and Helsinki-based designers in international exhibitions and working as a mediator between young designers and the public. Imu is an independent organization which aims at facilitating the transition from student to professional designer by giving young designers a chance to exhibit their work and talent. Imu represents the future of Finnish design, offering fresh ideas from emerging designers.
Imu is coordinated by a group of three designers, Elina Aalto, Krista Kosonen and Saara Renvall. The works for each individual show are chosen by a jury consisting of more established Finnish designers such as Timo Salli, Harri Koskinen and Sari Anttonen. This way the activity stays open and light and new designers flow in as the older ones became more established on their own.
