In Between Chair, &Tradition

The interpay between positive and negative space is central to in Between, Samy Kallio's new chair for &Tradition.


 
 
Its back and side panels provide a concrete shape and support, but forms are created equally by the gaps in between then.


“What’s exciting about In Between is the successful clash between the industrial process and the traditional techniques that reference hand-crafted wooden furniture,” says Martin Kornbek Hansen, brand director of &tradition. In Between’s combination of modern industry and traditional craft is in perfect accordance with &tradition’s championing of tradition tied to innovation” explains Sami.
