Selection
A low plywood chair with a light footprint.
Herman MillerEames Molded Plywood Lounge Chair Wood Base
Why we picked it
Its molded plywood curves give it a clear silhouette, while the open, low profile keeps a corner from feeling crowded.
What stood out
The low, curved plywood shell has a clear shape without much visual bulk.
Where it could work
It could work by a window, in a reading corner, or beside a sofa when another upholstered chair would feel too bulky.
How we'd use it
We'd place it near a window with a small table in reach. A cushion is optional, not required.
