这把椅子采用传统的中国榫卯技术制作，确保了坚固耐用的结构。利用弯曲的胶合板增添了现代感，呈现出流畅的线条，体现了极简主义和简约主义的原则。设计的一个显著特点是将腿部与靠背、以及腿部与扶手巧妙融合为单一、无缝的部件。这种创新的设计不仅增强了椅子的结构完整性，还赋予了其光滑流畅的美感。椅子的设计是对简约主义的一种赞美，剔除了不必要的元素，展现了功能性与视觉吸引力兼具的产品。这是一个完美的例子，展示了设计元素如何在不牺牲舒适性或风格的情况下被简化至其最基本的形式。

This chair is crafted using traditional Chinese joinery techniques, ensuring a robust and durable structure. The use of bended plywood adds a modern twist, resulting in smooth, flowing lines that embody the principles of minimalism and reductionism. One of the standout features of this design is the integration of the leg and back, as well as the leg and armrest, into single, seamless pieces. This innovative approach not only enhances the chair’s structural integrity but also contributes to its sleek, streamlined aesthetic. The chair’s design is a celebration of reductionism, stripping away unnecessary elements to reveal a product that is both functional and visually appealing.
