Toronto design studio Fishtnk collaborated with Daniel Hambleton of SPM (Studio for Progressive Modeling) from Yolles Group to create the Cortical Chair using research that looks at how designers can bridge the gap between mass-customization furniture and products with large scale production.

Jacques Guillon, 1950
The chair frame is comprised of three intersecting laminated wood boomerang-shaped pieces. The seat and back are made of taut nylon cord, which was readily available
following WW2.
Designed by some of my friends for Public Displays of Affection’s 40 Oaks exhibition.
