Yet, thanks to the refinement and definition provided by molded plywood, the overall form maintains a sense of lightness and a well-balanced relationship with the slender frame. Precisely proportioned to sit within the shell, the cushions leave a subtle edge of the wood visible from the front quietly framing the upholstered surface. </p> <p style="padding: 0;margin: 0 0 40px 0;text-align: justify;font-size:14px;font-family:sans-serif;"> The molded plywood of the seat and back is finished with carefully selected straight-grain veneer, arranged in a book-matched pattern. This subtle detail enhances the beauty of the chair when viewed from behind. Paired with a matching ottoman, the MEGURO Lounge Chair forms a complete set that enhances any space.<br><br> As Fukasawa explains, <br>  Brought to life by capturing the essence of handcrafted aesthetics and translating it into a technique for mass production, this piece stands as a true masterpiece a classical modern  my chair.  </p> </td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <table
