I made it the right size so that I can lay down on it without turning my neck to the side. Also, there is a hole in the back so that your arm won’t fall asleep when you take a nap. And the arms are tall, so that you can lean back on them when you read a book.

I printed the fabric myself, using a large sandblasted piece of pine as a printing block.

The seat and back are made out of bent plywood, and the frame is ash with wedged through-tenon joints.
