In a June 2025 post Dezeen pointed me to eight overlooked mid century designers of which Ray Komai is one. Japanese American Interned during WW II He designed several pieces for JG Furniture Company, a New York-based manufacturer founded in the 1920s. The most recognizable of these pieces is his one-piece molded plywood side chair.
