Made by Choice Laakso dining chair, ash

Laakso chair, designed by Saku Sysiö for the Finnish design house Made By Choice, is a flowingly shaped dining chair. The chair was named after its curved, valley-shaped backrest – Laakso is a Finnish word for valley – and also Helsinki’s Laakso district, where the chair was designed. The combination of a U-shaped backrest and A-shaped legs gives a vivid character to the Laakso chair. Made of lightly shaped solid ash in Made By Choice’s own factory in Finland, Laakso makes an excellent dining chair for homes, cafés and restaurants. Laakso was awarded as the best chair at the Restaurant & Bar Design Awards 2017 in the United Kingdom.
