François Azambourg - Chaise "Very Nice" (modèle réduit)

As a model-making enthusiast, François Azambourg created the Very Nice chair for self-assembly. This 1/5 scale model is made of elements in balsawood connected together and is directly inspired by fabric-covered model airplanes.
In its original version, the Very Nice chair was chosen by VIA in 2002 and was then produced by Domeau & Pérès in 2005.

This miniature model is that of the “Very Nice” chair in varnished wood. All the necessary materials required to assembly the chair are in a kit: a set square, fine sandpaper, varnish and a brush. A plan including installing instructions is also provided.

Limited to 100 copies signed and numbered. Dimensions of the Very Nice chair: 164 x 97 x 73 mm
