Muecke Wood Collection Dining Chair
Muecke Wood Collection Dining Chair
To architect and sculptor Jonathan Muecke, material is elemental, repetition is clarity, and logic is freedom. In his first commercial collaboration with Knoll, Muecke applies the principles of his art practice to create an all-wood dining collection with the familiarity of a kitchen table and chairs. “I like to take things for what they are and not try to imagine what someone intended them to be,” explains Muecke. “Ultimately these are generous objects.”
FEATURES
Material comes first for every Jonathan Muecke project. For this collection he chose wood because it’s common and warm. "Plus, it has grain," he says. "We can think of this as material.”
Trained as an architect, Jonathan Muecke thinks more about spatial relationships than any individual object. “I don’t think about chairs and tables as objects,” he says. “I think about a chair in terms of material—as a marker of human scale, a physical record in relational space.
Whether he’s creating furniture or sculpture, Muecke seeks to identify and express the internal logic of his materials. It’s a process he finds generous and freeing. “Only when something has internal logic does it have a have a chance at external relationships with other things.
CONSTRUCTION
The frame is made of solid wood. The seat and backrest consist of a curved plywood panel, topped with sliced veneer in a wood finish matching the frame. Each piece features the Knoll logo, stamped as a mark of authenticity and quality.

Meet The Designer
Marc Krusin
Marc Krusin was born in London in 1973. He graduated in the UK and after placements with Fred Scott and George Sowden, he began his career in Milan collaborating as a designer with various studios. These include Piero Lissoni’s office, where he is presently design manager and runs projects for clients of international reputation such as Alessi, Kartell, Flos, Thonet, Wella, Fritz Hansen and Knoll.
In 1998 he co-founded the Milan based group Codice 31 with five other designers from diverse backgrounds. The group’s first appearance was at the 1998 Milan furniture fair’s “Salone Satellite” exhibition for young designers and in successive years it enjoyed continual expansion and gained an increasing importance in the design world, collaborating with some of the sector’s most prestigious companies.
Since 2004 he has collaborated with Omnidecor and in 2006 a series of Marc’s decorations for float glass were commercialised marking the beginning of a close working relationship which led to an entire new product image and presentation concept designed by Marc for the company.
Marc has continued to design furniture, products, exhibitions and spaces for well-known companies in the design industry.
