Thonet for Muji

Austrian-German Michael Thonet built his first piece of bent wood furniture in 1836. By 1930, Thonet had already produced over 50 million No. 14 coffee shop chairs. Muji got its start in Japan in 1980 and now now offers up more than 7,000 products. An odd couple, but here's to their 21st century marriage.
