Shift Chair by Jonas Forsman for Moooi created using 3D knitting

In our next exclusive movie for Moooi, Swedish designer Jonas Forsman explains how he used 3D-knitting techniques to make his foldable Shift Chair for the Dutch brand as comfortable as possible.
Forsman's foldable Shift Chair, which is available as a dining chair and a wider, lower lounge chair, features a padded seat and a tensile fabric backrest.
Forsman wanted to create an attractive, comfortable folding chair because the spaces people are living in are getting smaller and more crowded.
"We do not have as much space as we had before," says Forsman in the movie, which was filmed in Milan last year during the furniture fair, where Shift Chair was unveiled.
"One day you want to use your space in one way and the next day you want to use it in another way."
Shift Chair is available in a range of different colours and features a powder-coated steel frame with a foam seat and a knitted polyester cover that stretches out to create a soft yet supportive backrest.
"We can fold it for storage, but it still has a great comfort and a nice look," Forsman says.
