Rasmussen MR01 Initial Outdoor Chair for Gubi. 
 
Created by woodworker Mathias Steen Rasmussen, the MR01 initial chair unites traditional craftsmanship with original ideas to create a form that is familiar and yet strikingly modern. Executed in FSC-certified iroko wood and durable synthetic rope for outdoor use. The open triangle profile of the frame is constructed without a single screw, relying instead on artisanal cabinet-making techniques such as finger joints and wedged mortise and tenon joints. This approach makes the chair's construction and materiality entirely visible, lending the piece a sense of honesty and highlighting the craftsmanship involved.
 
The Chair is hand-woven from 90 meters of rope, using a method Rasmussen developed himself, which locks the rope into the iroko wood frame. The rope fastens in place simply by running through four holes, in a manner that is rustic and yet elegant and understated.
