The Tight Stool by Belgian designer Diane Steverlynck is in fact a puzzle of several pieces held together by a tight rope. Hence the name.

Mission No.2 : ERIC KU – Puzzle Chair
Cardboard Puzzle Chair (with 2 meanings) by Eric Ku:
An inspiration from the American contemporary artist Joseph Kosuth, One and Three Chair.
Instead of giving a new definition, I redefined the concept of a chair by using the alphabet. One is able to construct a chair by assembling the redesigned alphabet.
And here Joseph Kosuth’s One Two Three Chair installation that Eric used as his inspiration:
Kosuth’s work is all about meaning:
1) The word chair explained 2) A photo of a chair and 3) a real chair, all put together in one installation.

I’ve cut and pasted this 2pac slot chair photo from Raw Studio‘s site. I would love to have a better one.
The chair comes as a flat pack, you only need a mallet to put it together.

Thin is in. Powder-coated steel ships flat and folds along laser-cut lines to create a dynamic and comfortable chair. As skinny as a supermodel, yet far more sturdy. Available in two glossy tone-on-tone colors, and satin black and glossy red.
About Blu Dot
Blu Dot furniture was founded by John Christakos, Charles Lazor, and Maurice Blanks. The firm began as a loose collaboration of three college friends trained in architecture and art, based on the premise that design should be affordable. The partners chose furniture as the subject of interest and opened a studio and operations in Minneapolis in 1996. Blu Dot has begun to realize their vision with a collection of over 40 furniture pieces that are both elegantly abstract and unambiguously functional. Blu Dot pieces are in the permanent collections of several museums, have been seen on the sets of well-known television shows such as Friends and ER, and have won numerous national and international awards. The furniture collection is distributed around the world.
