Led by the idea of flat packaging and easy assemblage, the single elements of this chair are planar and designed to be slotted into each other, without the necessity of any glue or screws. To maintain their position, all joints are defined as an interlocking system, which, once it is fully assembled, cannot be dissembled again. The formal design concept of this chair is based on the natural form of a skeleton: a central backbone element defines the overall shape of the chair and branches out into a set of ribs forming the seat. The legs are designed to provide a stable position with their shape reflecting the natural load distribution and are therefore reduced to trusses with tension and compression members.

The challenge to design a new upholstered chair for the Swiss company Wogg resulted in a new type of chair, which was presented for the first time in 2007 at the furniture fair in Milan. It took a total of four years of development time before it was ready for serial production in 2009. Two pads are wrapped around a delicate wooden frame of solid ash wood and fixed in place with press studs. It is a simple method to fold and fix in place the two-dimensional quilted pads. Forming a seat shell with a collar wrapped around the backrest, these pads are the actual innovation. The fabric parts, made from pure wool and pressed between two aluminium shells, can be produced as two-dimensional pieces. Precisely measured and welded in a high frequency procedure, it only takes a few seconds for them to leave the press. Wogg 42 is designed as an industrial product through and through.
