This Red Oak rocker does not rock so much as recline, making it a very comfortable chair with minimalist design and material. The back is made of one board. The seat has a 1 1/2 inch foam pad with Herculite webbing for increased comfort. The headrest is adjustable and removable. Seat and headrest are covered with black upholstery fabric. The runners make this chair easy to move about a space.

I design and make furniture that I like, and would want in my home. Most of the furniture that I make starts with wood, as I love the look and feel of serious wood, which is why most of my pieces have a clear finish on them.
Two major influences are the prairie style of architecture that I grew up with in my parents home, but also the Bauhaus architecture of my alma mater in Central Minnesota. I spent too many hours sitting in Marcel Breuer chairs, in a Marcel Breuer-designed library, pondering the design rather than writing that Brittish Lit. paper.
Central Minnesota is a good place for one who loves modern; it is also a very good place for someone who loves wood. I have a handful of sawyers within a 45-minute drive from whom I buy my wood--mostly Red Oak, White Oak, Walnut, and Cherry.
