The N02 Recycle is a multi-purpose chair made from recycled plastic household waste. Inspired by a folded piece of paper on the designer's studio table, the backrest is designed with a purposefully placed kink that provides additional support for the upper and lower back.

The simple designer chair is available in seven colour variations, based on the colour spectrum of Scandinavian nature. For the frame, you can choose between 4-legged, with runners or swivel frame, depending on your needs. For both the 4-legged and the swivel frame versions, you can also order the chair with or without armrests. This makes the N02 suitable not only for the dining area, but also for work and meeting rooms.

Nendo – Sculptural Designs

Oki Sato – founder of the nendo design studio – was born in Toronto, Canada, and later moved to Tokyo, where he completed a master's degree in architecture at Waseda University. In 2002, he founded the nendo studio, whose name is now synonymous with both architectural projects and great furniture designs around the world. The philosophy of nendo is that just as life is full of little aha moments, moments of surprise and richness, so are their designs.

"Nendo" means "plasticine" in Japanese – a term that fits perfectly with the studio's sculptural approach to design, no matter what material is being worked with. For their designs, nendo have been awarded the Dezeen, Wallpaper and Red Rot Design Awards, among others.
