Jiyoun Kim Studio presents the 52 Degree Collection Project, a new series of chairs. As the title speaks, the chair is designed with a formational characteristic of 52 degree angled legs. Consisting only with circles and lines, 52 Degree Collection's simple structure blends seamlessly with surroundings yet produces a prominent presence. The collection is divided into various types of chairs from Dining Chair, Bar Chair, Stool, Bench, and more, by replacing the seat plate. The legs are made by bending the pill-shaped metal pipe, sustaining the lightweight and durability. Through minimal usage of metal and processing, 52 Degree Collection was designed with the goal of reducing manufacturing costs to the reasonable level and aiming to fit into a modern environment.
