Note:
To compensate for the lack of colour choice available for the recycled household waste plastic used for this chair (black) the design is available with a range of brightly coloured seat cushions (which are not included in this analysis). The chair weighs 5kg. A second material has been used for the base (shipped in a separate carton). Fibreglass has been added to the plastic to improve the strength of the shell, diminishing the end-of-life prospects for the chair. The Falk is available with or without arms and with a range of base options including a pedestal or a more traditional four leg solution.
