Our debut product, the root chair, is designed by Willem Vonk and Heather Sandlin. The idea was to design a chair with a strong graphic profile around which the Local Editions brand could be built. It is designed with both the customer and the manufacturer in mind. The design allows for quick and accurate fabrication, which minimizes quality variations across multiple manufacturers. For Local Editions Custom this piece can be redesigned as a barstool, a counter height stool, even a bench style seat.
