45 Degrees is a Chicago based furniture design company owned and operated by Jason Wade. The furniture of 45 Degrees is reflective of mid 20th century design but is planted firmly within a contemporary approach to materials and construction. Operating out of 5800 square feet on the city's southwest side, 45 Degrees offers furniture from its collection and also produces custom work. With clients all over the U.S., from New York to Miami and Las Vegas, 45 Degrees has reached a client base beyond the Midwest. This is due in large part to having participated in the International Contemporary Furniture Fair in New York City in both 2004 and 2005.
