ARTIST COLLABORATION with Matthew Day Jackson
KOLHO
The Kolho chair is based on the two polarities of chaos and reason: serpentine-like curves meet a simple, flat seat defined by a clear and restrained form language.
Designed with Matthew Day Jackson, the collection pays tribute to the small Finnish village of Kolho, where the collaboration with Made By Choice first took shape. Jackson states that the Kolho chair, from its plywood material to its flowing form, draws inspiration from the Apollo moon landings. All pieces are handcrafted at Made By Choice’s factory in Halikko, Finland.
