Field notes

The site documents a one-person production system rather than presenting furniture as anonymous inventory. Timber is sourced from Malaysia, while cutting, joining, and finishing take place in Perth; the page says each chair is made from solid, non-finger-jointed slats. Its unusually concrete production markers include more than 10,000 chairs made, 65 screws and eight bolts per chair, and a made-to-order policy with no stock built ahead.
