Eiffel Tower High Back Chair
Designers Block UK is Di Overton’s inspirational Blog and there I found this Eiffel Tower Chair [update:] by Jean Christophe Bernard (as per Julia’s comment. Thanks Julia!). Jean Christophe designed it for French label Acrila
The Free Chair Project (1): La Espera by Alfonso Gosalbez
La Espera by Alfonso Gosalbez
German twins and chair designers Max and Hannes Gumpp have designed the Latten Stuhl (i.e. Slats Chair). At the occasion of last year’s 2010 Valencia Design Week Spanish Hat Gallery had 40 Slats Chairs distributed over 40 creative types with the request to create their own interpretation of it. All chairs were used at the speeddating exhibition. I’ll start the series with this Chair La Espera by Alfonso Gosalbez.
I would coin the chair “Bum Burnt Chair”. I wonder what Moggit’s capture would be.
There is a Spanish catalog of the exhibition at Luis Eslava who curated the exhibition.
Via Yatzer and, off course Design Boom posted about it as well.
Kubus or Cube Armchair by Josef Hofmann
Austrian furniture manufacturer Wittmann still makes it, the Kubus or Cube armchair by Josef Hoffmann. It’s one of my favorites. Another omission I’ve never featured it here. The design is from 1910.
