Flare by Konstantin Achkov

Today is Konstantin’s Birthday and I saw that he had send me photo’s of this chair eons ago. Happy birthday Konstantin! Time to publish these as a birthday present. He is from 1973, so this must be his 52nd birthday if I am correct.

Soon after Julia published about the stitching chair in August 2011, it was exhibited in January, 2012 at 2012 IMM Cologne which I visited and where I could take my own photo’s including one of Florian himself. And I let lapse quite some time to publish it myself.

In 2012 Stefan Krivokapic who has a studio in Milan by the name of Skrivo, stood at IMM Cologne himself as a young designer.

Stack for Amura
The concept behind the Stack easy chair comes from the idea of having cushions in constant motion that look like they have been stacked randomly on top of each other. Placing multicoloured polyurethane upholstered cushions on a molded plywood structure creates the perception of depth and playfulness. Two tubular steel rods add additional aesthetic detail as well as structural support for the ash wood legs.
