Isometric view of a chair with undulating waves starting with the edge of the seat extending in an “S” form with an ascending crest that meets the underside of the seat displaying a convex form that proceeds to the floor. On the sitting side, the material is defined as having a concave form fabricated mostly in white measured squares of resin. The material that creates the structure of the entire chair are hundreds of dull squares of resin in gray scale positioned in a planned composition.

An armless, legless chiar with althernating wave like bands of dark brown wood and white resin. The diagonal bands vary in length and start from one edge and spill over another edge; for example from top to side, side to side, side to bottom. The organic pattern mimics the fluid curves of the chair. The suble wood grain pattern contrasts with the consistent flat resin material.

An armless, legless chair in a continous serpentine form with cut out wood triangles of varying sizes pieced together to form larger polygon shapes. An irregular lattice on the entire surface gives the impression of lightness belying the chair's stability. The light color of the wood is uniform throughout.
