ABOUT 4PM SELF BUILD collection

About the collection

Originally, 4PM Self Build was a fast model for analyzing comfort, where Massproductions’ product developers had to build multiple versions to create the right feeling.

”We realized that the self-built version of 4PM was cheap, simple and fun to build. You may not be able to afford 4PM, but with instructions you can make your own and get the luxury of the chaise longue, without the luxurious price tag. Maybe there is something exciting in being able to build the furniture yourself. That’s when I realized that Enzo Mari never included a chaise longue in his self-build project”, says Chris Martin.

Instructions and drawings for 4PM Self Build can be downloaded free of charge here. The material for the furniture can be purchased from approx. 50 EURO and up, depending on the material chosen.
