This chair was designed for a fund-raising event held at the Union Station in Ogden, UT to benefit the Boys and Girls Clubs of Weber/Davis and the Interior Design Scholarship fund at Weber State University. Most of the money required to build the chair came from contributions from commercial and private donors. This chair is a modern interpretation of the Morris Adjustable Chair built in the mid-1800's.
