What is FAS Grade
FAS Grade stands for first and second grade, which is the highest standard for hardwood quality, ensuring the wood is strong, durable, and nearly flawless. To meet this grade, at least 83% of each board’s surface must be free of knots, cracks, or other defects, and the boards are typically 6 inches wide and 8 feet long or larger. This means the wood is not only visually clean but also structurally strong, with minimal waste during production. Products like this sofa frame, crafted with FAS-grade wood, are built to last and highlight the natural elegance and durability of premium materials.

Jeanneret’s work is celebrated for its minimalist aesthetic and functional design. Some of his most notable contributions include:
– Collaboration with Le Corbusier: Jeanneret worked alongside Le Corbusier on several iconic projects, including the Villa Savoye and the city of Chandigarh in India. His role was crucial in bringing Le Corbusier’s visionary ideas to life2.
– Furniture Design: Jeanneret designed a range of modern furniture pieces, including the Kangaroo Chair, Office Chair, and Floating Back Chair. These pieces are known for their ergonomic design and sleek, minimalist style.
