Designed by Wesley Walters and Salla Luhtasela, also known as duo Kaksikko, the Akademia Armrest chair combines a classic, straight frame with a softly curved seat, backrest and armrests. The available options are ash, oak natural, or light oak, with or without seat upholstery.
The chair was originally the result of Master’s Thesis work at Aalto University by a member of the Kaksikko team; Wesley Walters. It is a fascinating combination of different cultures – simplistic Shaker style, Japanese design traditions, and Finnish craftsmanship heritage.
