LessThanFive
Chair
An object of extraordinary craftsmanship. The LessThanFive chair designed by the Coalesse Design Group and Michael Young is tailored for an experience that is anything but ordinary. Made entirely of carbon fiber, one of the strongest and lightest materials available today, the LessThanFive chair supports a variety of users while weighing less than five pounds. With a carbon fiber build and keen attention to design, the LessThanFive chair invites a creative freedom that is channeling the future of modern craft.
iF Gold Statement
The chair has exceptional material quality combined with an intuitive form. The use of carbon not only leads to an extremely light chair, but also lends an interesting aesthetic expression, which is both futuristic and contemporary. Details such as connections and transitions have been solved precisely and perfectly.
