café america is a surprisingly comfortable indoor/outdoor chair. taking inspiration from ubiquitous chain-link fencing, it recontextualizes the unsung material. a unique cushioning effect is created by the lightly tensioned chain-link seat and back. café america is made of recycled chain-link whenever possible and flat-packs for efficient shipping and storage.
