Invited to submit a poster for an exhibition of graphic designers paying homage to furniture design held during Milan Design Week, the authors chose the Danish designer Arne Jacobsen.
The silhouettes of six iconic chairs made of curbed plywood on metal legs are reproduced through hatch patterns engraved on a sheet of poplar plywood by laser cutting.
The six different inclinations based on a 30º grid produce an effect of moiré.
