A Norwegian designer by the name of Falke Svatun has designed a beautifully functional and aesthetically pleasing dining chair, dubbed the Synnes Chair, that features a distinctly slim backrest that surrounds the chair's user, ensconcing them visually.
Developed for Danish company Menu, this dining chair features a backrest that is made from plywood and measures in at only six millimeters in thickness. The use of such ultra-thin material allows the backrest to maintain a near-flat aesthetic but bend inwards on the flanks.
What's great about this slim dining chair is the fact that it uses smart design to offer a comfortable seating experience in a sturdy package that conforms to modern home design aesthetics and tastes.
