Designers Karina Mencke and Marcus Vagnby created the chair as part of a collection that also includes barstools, benches, dining tables and coffee tables for their own label, ShapingYourDay. The chair’s rounded backrest narrows to a tongue-like section that curves underneath the seat. A visible brass screw fixes the back section to a loop that curves up from the rear of the seat, and another screw underneath locks the two pieces in place. “The Viggo chair has a two-shell structure, which gives the chair its high seating comfort and distinctive design expression, different from all other chairs,” said the designers. The chair is made from veneered plywood, in the tradition of some of the classic chairs created by Danish designers such as Arne Jacobsen and Grete Jalk in the 1950s and 1960s. Padding can be added to the seat and back and upholstered in various fabrics. An accompanying dining table has legs formed from two pieces of curving wood fixed together with brass screws, which match those used on the chairs.
