Erling Christoffersen (b. 1953)

“Walk the Plank”. Sculptural chaise longue / deck chair of moulded oak. Seat and back with pierced circular pattern along middle. Made by cabinetmakers Jens Christian Kjerulff & Daniel Kristiansen, with metal plaque. L. 160 cm.

“Oak wood was chosen, as the chair must withstand rain. The solid oak plank has been divided into three 5 mm thick shells, which are moulded and glued into shape. The plank has been cut through the middle and re-assembled to create a curve that increases the comfort. The assemblage along the middle is marked by a perforation which also allows for the rain to run through the holes.” - Erling Christoffersen (www.ec-design.dk)
