CAM Design Co. is a contemporary design studio and manufacturer located in Union City, New Jersey. Founder and designer Christopher Miano stays true to traditional woodworking techniques to create heirloom-quality artifacts with a modern, playful sensibility.
Known for hand-selecting raw materials from local, sustainably harvested sources, the studio celebrates the imperfections of the materials at hand. Always looking to push the envelope, CAM Design Co. explores unconventional uses of natural materials through furniture, lighting, and objects.
The Rival Chair was created through an exploration of shaping solid slab lumber. Designed to be an heirloom quality dining chair, each chair part is thoughtfully selected to highlight the grain pattern and characteristics of the material.
The seat is upholstered with a natural boucle fabric to elevate its form and ensure comfort.
