The One Good Chair International Design Awards announced winners at the Las Vegas Market. Jessica Konawicz of Raleigh, N.C., and Jittasak Narknisorn of Woodland Hills, Calif., won the top prizes.

Hemp is used for the composite body panels, the hard top and the spoiler, as well as in the lightweight seats. Hemp is a strong fiber that absorbs carbon dioxide through natural photosynthesis and is manufactured using low energy. The hemp material is used with a polyester resin to form a hybrid composite.

The Pandanus Lounge Chair designed by Konawicz is constructed from a single biodegradable and renewable resource material. Positive, the chair designed by Narknisorn, uses metal, plywood and felt in its design.
