Is this the coolest chair ever made? is the name given to the chair above by British designer Charlie Davidson, the chair will be exhibited at 100%Design in UK on 24 – 27 September 2009.
Made from 2mm punched steel sheet, gas welded and powder coated the design is based on an prototype for a plastic outdoor chair made earlier in the year. This limited edition piece takes over a week to fabricate and finish. The designer says, “it takes many hours to get all the holes to line up on the hidden joins” and adds “this chair looks so simple in its form but beneath its almost invisible skin lies months of prototyping that makes a perfectly balanced form. This will become a design classic of the future”.
