More about the book

By experimenting with industrial materials and processes, Mathias Bengtsson, the Danish-born, London-based furniture designer produces sculptural furniture which is visually arresting and technically innovative. When he developed his Slice series of sculptural furniture, he combined the latest computerised laser-cutting techniques with handwork to create a series of chairs and chaise longues which make the most of both technology and handcraftsmanship. Having produced the first Slice pieces in plywood, he then adapted the same process for aluminium.
