The Oto chair is made from
a single piece of molded beech plywood. It is part of Peter Karpf’s Voxia line
of furniture. The chairs are shaped into their 3D form in one continuous process — this
minimizes cut-away wood and energy used in manufacturing.
The beech plywood comes from a sustainably
managed forest in Belgium close to the production plant. The beech is rotary
cut into peeled veneer, using the entire tree trunk.
