Simplicity is a choice. Meet the KS1 Chair by Kasper Salto.

Launched in June 2025 at 3daysofesign the minimalist KS1 Chair by Onecollection joins the Danish Red showroom collection in late 2025.

Created by Danish designer and cabinetmaker Kasper Salto, the KS1 Chair was developed with a focus on longevity and minimal environmental impact. While most contemporary timber chairs rely on moulded plywood, Salto chose solid wood throughout reducing resource use and simplifying the production process.

Its construction is straightforward yet sophisticated. Each joint is precisely engineered for strength, allowing the chair to endure years of repeated use without compromising on elegance or comfort. Kasper Salto personally built the first prototype to test the details that define the chair’s character. The KS1 Chair is made at OneCollection’s workshop in Vejen, Denmark, and reflects the brand’s constantly high standards of quality and craftsmanship.  The frame is FSC-certified oak, beech, or ash, with webbing made from 90% recycled cotton in black or natural tones. Designed to be useful, durable, and beautiful, the KS1 Chair reflects a deep respect for materials, tradition, and the spaces we share from home all the way to the public realm.

Kasper Salto is one of Denmark’s leading designers and has collaborated with some of the country’s most renowned furniture manufacturers throughout his career. He has received several prestigious awards, including the Furniture Prize in 2003, the Engelhardt Memorial Grant in 2005, and the Finn Juhl Prize in 2010. The celebrated designer is also the grandson of Axel Salto, the world renowned Danish Modernist painter, printmaker and master ceramics artist.

Circling back the KS1 Chair’s place in the Danish Red collection it’s over to the furniture designer himself to explain the attraction.
