The JM Chair is an example of a design where the adoption of appropriate principles is used to optimize the entire longevity of a piece from its manufacturing, transport through to assembly and repair. It is an example of a design that fulfils its function and is “nothing more than what is needed – lagom”. The reduction of material, technological and energy excess and the inspiration drawn from the Shakers craftsmanship and Japanese style results in a way of thinking about a design that truly and fully keeps the use of resources and energy at its forefront.
