Check out these new concept chair designs for Gardner Contemporary! This new family of chairs combines sculpted hardwoods and raw steel. We like the expressive tension found in the contrast of the hard linear steel and the softly shaped wood parts. The chairs are very comfortable, with deeply saddled seats.

Environmental considerations were foremost in mind from the start of the design development process. The chair legs are made of steel tubing because it is extensively recycled. The steel is a "mill finish", which gives it a raw look. Maple wood components are from well managed northeastern US forests. The wood finish is a natural oil rub with wax, - there are no spray operations. No foam is used in the packaging process, and "green" fabrics are offered.
