Gregg Fleishman’s Plywood Puzzle Chairs

To left, a 2002 chair called Nebula II, and to right, a timeline showing stages in the evolution of his 1979 Lumbarest design, the first prototype of which dates to 1975. Besides furniture, Gregg also designs buildings and model vehicles using a similar body of techniques.
