The Straight chair is made from solid American Walnut and Hickory and feature the designer's signature and KnollStudio logo on the underside.
Nakashima, a wood craftsman and poet, studied architecture at the University of Washington in Seattle, the Ecole Americaine des Beaux-Arts Fontainebleau in France and at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
