EFG chair, a conceptual chair is a symbiosis of the mid-century school chair (i.e. school chair) and
a more comfortable home sofa.
The construction of the above-mentioned chair which has found its widest application in educational institutions worldwide has been used.
​
Added pillows suggest the warmth and coziness of the home. EFG chair gives homage to James Leonard’s classic X202 master’s chair from 1947, which was innovatively constructed in aluminum from decommissioned weapons left over from the Second World War.
Gone are the references to wars and floods,
for the EFG Chair is not just a symbol of endurance but
a testament to adaptability. It has withstood the test of time, serving generations of learners with unmatched durability and affordability, using thoughtfully chosen materials in its production.
​
The name of the project reflects a continuation. It literally means the continuation of the English alphabet - a, b, c, d, "e, f, g,", which refers to the arrival of something new. To create, to change, to move. To move from the point we have been to the present time
​
​It has a construction that is stable, durable, and honest, and pillows that are there to provide us with comfort and alleviate all difficulties. Likewise, it places emphasis on the redesign and represents an embodiment, as well as a solution for the more current needs of pupils and students in the third decade of the 21 century.
