The PKL is a minimalist lounge chair designed to fit into a modern home. The PKL takes inspiration from Eames and other designers to create a truly unique and ergonomic design. It utilizes large curves in the form of bent tubular steel legs and kerf cut wood to hug the user and provide ample support.

Bio
As a student in Georgia Tech’s Industrial Design program, I fuse art and science to identify unmet consumer needs and innovate functional and aesthetically pleasing solutions. To know I’ve created a product that’s not only attractive, but also easy to use and helpful is a great sense of accomplishment.
