Long Chair, A Bench Made out of One Steel Tube
6 Jun 2008 Author: zenon In: Architecture, Design & Products
The Long Chair, created by Schemata Architecture in Tokyo, is devilishly simple: take a single tube of stainless steel and bend it into a chair profile over and over. Stack enough of these chair outlines side by side, and you have an actual chair. Stack even more, and you have a bench. Even more, and you have a reeeeeeally long bench.
Probably a pretty uncomfortable bench, I’m guessing — not to mention one that you’d have trouble moving and no doubt gets really cold in the winter. This one’s definitely more cool art project than practical urban fixture, but the wicked shadows in the gallery below still make us want one.
“V” is a new initiative from the renowned danish furniture manufacturer Verikon Furniture A/S. The ambition behind “V” is to move upward in a constantly changing market. The focus will be on original design and highest possible quality rather than price and volume.
“Lobster” design by LUND & PAARMANN
Rocking chair with wood structure and seat in fabric whose main idea is based on saving and reusing of materials. Parts are extracted from a single board of wood and the seat is made of fabric remnants. Through the new design, we achieve a better use of what surround us.
Designer: Covadonga Carreno Alvarez
