Hence

HENCE is a simple continuous surface chair. Its geometry is sculptural, structural, ergonomic and studied for manufacture. Despite being made of aluminum, it is a tribute to Sam Maloof, and his eponymous joint, on which each leg relies, giving this classic of carpentry know-how a complete new twist. It is made from recycled (and recyclable) aluminum from the trash of Lebanon. It is composed of six parts, to be cast in simple moulds and shipped economically. Its wall thickness is six millimeters, and it weights eight kilograms. Its continuous surface has been defined using computer aided design software and has been 3Dprinted to produce the masters for moulding.
