The Monroe Chair / Alexander White

Posted in Design - Furniture by FORMAKERS ( LG)

the MONROE chair The MONROE Chair is an exploration of form and function through repetition.

It uses many identically CNC mass-produced components which swivel around a central axis in order to create a complexly curved and comfortable armchair.

The challenge was to create one shape that serves as the four main components in an armchair.

The back leg gradually morphs into the backrest and the armrest into the front leg. Creating a distinct aesthetic entirely defined by the simplicity of the manufacturing process.

© Alexander White
Named MONROE after its striking resemblance to Marilyn Monroe’s white pleated dress as she steps over the subway grate in NYC.
