The only chair designed by Jean Prouvé that is constructed entirely from wood, 'Chaise Tout Bois' partly came to be as a result of circumstance — wood was substituted for metal due to the scarcity of metal during the Second World War. The clean and contemporary chair is the conclusion of Prouvé's mission to provide extra strength at the transition point between the seat and backrest, where the load weight of a sitting person is the greatest. The resulting concept presents a typical characteristic of Prouvé's furniture and architecture designs, with a reference to the load transfer in the profile of the rear frame section.
