"Granny"
By Gilles, Tuesday 7 March 2006 à 13:56 :: Furniture
My design’s aim is to update forgotten morphology of this chair to the present. I intend to create design for contemporary technology and materials without losing the past heritage in it. The original chair was a part of a common home; wooden backs used to be decorated by stylized floral carvings or paintings.
My design consists of two functional pieces: a fully plastic seat and steel-tube legs. In this case skeletal construction of the seat becomes the ornament while original shape still remains.
