About
Hagerman’s design was was an ode to existing classic Mexican chairs. It was made in collaboration with a co-op of wood workers based in Mexico city in an effort to help them make more income.
The design for the Arrullo was reproduced all through out Mexico by other craftspeople, like Hagerman had intended.
When designing the Lago chair, I carefully analyzed preexisting variations of the chair. A common characteristic that I knew I needed to include in a different way, was the weaving.
The thickness of the plywood was important for me as well. For the legs and the back rest, I planned to use two layers of plywood to give the chair more strength and visual weight.
With accurate dimensions and tolerances
All pieces were CNC cut, then hand assembled, weaved, and finshed.
