Seashell Chair I
About the Item
The Seashell chair was inspired by Bivalve seashells. The shape in which mollusks adapted their exoskeletons for protection is a simple yet elegant solution that results in a beautiful form, product of millions of years of evolution. You can see this inspiration through the dual curvatures and contours that make up the shape of the chair.
The design started with a sketch and was further developed with computational tools and algorithms. Its final shape is composed of a series of individual and unique outlines. Each of these shapes or outlines is made from stainless steel rods that are carefully molded and welded together in a hand-made process by master craftsmen.
This unique piece is a prototype of the Seashell chair, it is made with stainless steel rods with a satin finish. The pieces was exhibited in New York City, at the Wanted Design Launchpad 2018 exhibition. An optional seat is available for extra comfort.
