“Chaise” by Marta Bakowski
“Chaise” by Marta Bakowski
La Chaise is an installation based on the construction lines used in academic drawings. These ‘virtual’ lines are destined to help creating a perspective, to arrange the elements of the drawing within the space of the paper, or to draw an object with the right proportions.
What if those lines were physically present in a real three-dimensional space? The result is the image of a chair made of white threads attached in both parallel and perpendicular axis between the walls and ceiling of the gallery. The chair that stands out in a bright red color remains an image of the object it represents.
Marta should team up with Robert wilson….
Mosaica Chair by Yos and Leonard Theosabrata
Father and son team Yos and Leonard Theosabrata from Indonesia head the Accopuncto label.
Designing a seat that can adjusts to the shape of the users, that was Yos S. Theosabrata’s dream.
His son, Leonard Theosabrata made this dream come true by designing Accupunto’s Ergonic collection.
Its patented Ergonic technology uses an ancient method of acupressure, where each polypropylene capsule works as a needle exerting a relaxing pressure on various points of the body. The straps which bind these capsules give to our seat this surprising comfort.
Leonard Theosabrata was born in Jakarta, July 26, 1977. He graduated from the Product Design Faculty at the Art Center College of Design, Pasadena, CA in 2002. Leonard is currently the head of the Jakarta-based LTD. His love for furniture has led him to build Accupunto. He received a Red Dot Design Award in 2003, a Good Design Award Japan in 2005, and the recent Wallpaper Design Award 2009 for his collaboration with Michael Young for Accupunto.
With a French site accopuncto.fr they will storm the European Market. They will be both represented at Maison et Object and IFF. I might see them in one of the exhibitions…
