Yi is a minimalist chair created by Hong Kong-based designer Michael Young. A chair that is influenced by some of the great Scandinavian designers yet displaying the unmistakeable design language of Michael Young.

By using Ash wood it allowed us to create the deep backrest that flows into the front legs so cleanly. The ergonomics of the chair were of course a key factor in creating this form for casual dining.

I have always adored the work of Hans Wegner, the lines he created through his deep understanding of the characteristics of wood, bending and shaping, cannot really be surpassed. This was really my main source of inspiration in attempting to work in a material other than plastic, metal or upholstery. We found a great factory with skilled Japanese craftsmen and technicians in Asia and thus the Yi Chair started to take shape.
