Knot Chair starts with a familiar chair shape in transparent green. One leg forms a knot. I wanted that single detail to be something people notice after they have already recognised the chair.

Context

I wanted to make a chair that could sit quietly in a room and still give someone a reason to look twice. Keeping most of the form familiar gave me room to change one part of it.

Approach

I kept the chair simple and used transparent green to give it a light appearance. The knot in one leg breaks that familiar outline without adding another decorative element.

Outcome

The result is a simple chair form with one unexpected detail. From a distance it looks familiar; up close, the knotted leg changes how you read it.
