Concrete Cloth Chair by Anne-Mette Manelius - Detail

I found this blog Concretely by Danish architect Anne-Mette Manelius. As she shares part of her name with my daughter she earns a plus. She is also obsessed by concrete. So obsessed that she wrongly claims concrete is the “most used building material in the world”. That, Anne-Mette, is not true, as the most used building material in the world is adobe, or simple clay or earth.

Nevertheless Anne-Mette has created a concrete chair whereby she has formed it as if it is an upholstered chair covered with a soft fabric, the texture of which she has applied to the concrete. Mind Boggling Indeed.
