I set out to design a chair which depending on which position was put you could sit in 7 different ways. Its shape resembles a vertebra which plays in the idea of furniture as an extension of backbone, when assembled in group the back of one chair can serve as a table of the one behind it.
This chair made me think that requesting too many functions from a single object has some disadvantages, like making a cumbersome and hefty object. A paradox of evolution, as for one part to evolve, other must suffer atrophy and will eventually disappear. |
