Snug Chair by Dennis Abalos
Snug Chair by Australian designer Dennis Abalos. It was a recent comment that pointed me to Dennis Abalos, while suggesting Japanese Architects Naruse Inokuma had copied their design of Dennis. I would doubt that. Certainly the design of both chairs have some similarities, but in my view not to an extent it is a shameless copy.
For comparision below the chair by Naruse Inokuma.
