Ru is a chair designed by Shane Schneck for Hay to respond to the contemporary demands of the home/work milieu. A robust construction of cross laminated veneer provides structure for the cantilevered seat and makes its multifunction possible. Thanks to the unified leg and seat solution, Ru chair is not only stackable and gangable, but also hangable. The hanging position allows for easy floor cleaning as the chair can be accomodated on the table top. Storage has been considered with the ability to stack while the addition of ganging means Ru is as suitable for a conference space as it is for the home. The versatility allows for the chair to be used in every setting from a class room, to an auditorium, to a café.
