Introduction

Designed by Jörg Boner, Rove Wooden Chair reimagines how a wooden chair is built. Instead of a traditional frame, the seat serves as the structural core, connecting legs and backrest into one integrated form. The softly curved shell is pressed from 12mm plywood with a reinforced underside that creates a flexible bounce in the backrest. Lightweight, stackable, and built for offices, conference rooms, and meeting spaces.

Rove challenges conventional construction by placing comfort and efficiency at the heart of its design. The plywood shell eliminates unnecessary framing, creating a chair that is minimal in material yet strong and durable. Easy to move, reposition, and stack when spaces need to adapt.

Material

Made from circular wood

Rove is made from responsibly sourced plywood. The pressing technique creates a flexible shell that offers structural strength while introducing an elastic quality in the backrest. The result is a chair that is minimal in material use yet designed to last through years of daily use in commercial environments.
