Fine Art x Function = FN
FN Furniture makes five chairs from one standard sheet of plywood, or four benches or seven stools. All the parts nest together like puzzle pieces, to leave almost zero waste. The style is modern, the shapes are body-fit, the build is sturdy, and the fabrication is local. Ken Landauer designs, builds and markets the furniture, drawing together 30 years of his art and woodwork. His website now offers 20 types.
