Description

Plydesign was born in 2014 out of the desire to create an excellent design that contributes to the well-being of people. Plydesign's work is characterized by serendipity – the ability to profit from new encounters and associations that result in striking juxtapositions of ideas. This kind of design approach has allowed to bring about a subtle yet sturdy furniture collection. Plydesign's achievements greatly rely on the family-owned factory's 30-year solid experience in manufacturing molded plywood components, the inventiveness of young creative designers, and the top-notch, eco-conscious suppliers. We choose wood only from FSC certified sources and offer a rich palette of OEKO-TEX® and EU Ecolabel certified textiles and fabrics by internationally acclaimed suppliers such as Camira and Gabriel, or highly resistant leather by Sørensen.

FLEET Collection results from extensive research and product development whereby the best ergonomics practices were integrated and applied, based on users' feedback. The tables and chairs come disassembled to minimize the box's volume and lower the ecological footprint. The adequate stability, safety, and surface resistance certificates guarantee a long lifecycle.

FLEET Collection's FRIGATE chair family represents a creative manufacturing method where conventional molded plywood and 3D-Veneer technology were applied. Compared to peer chairs on the market created entirely by 3D-Veneer technology, FRIGATE offers an affordable solution with the same high quality and standards. FRIGATE embodies our core design process: soulful care, curiosity, and creativity where everyone's needs matter. FRIGATE is a unique contribution to the democratization of design, as it found an innovative way to be accessible to a broad audience without compromising quality, aesthetics, and ergonomics. The chair family received the iF DESIGN AWARD in 2021.
