at Antoní Gaudi designed the structure of his churches, by making a model of hanging chains, so letting gravity determine the strongest and most logical shape for withstanding forces.

The Gaudi-stool was part of the furnistructure project. In the Furnistructures project was researched how lightweight products can be designed. This is design by studio greene

Materials & techniques:

A thin shell made of carbon fiber deals with the compressive forces. A beam-grid substructure resists bending of the shell. The substructure was made using rapid-prototyping techniques, in order to achieve the needed complexity. The rapid-prototyped structure was then used as a mold for the carbon-fiber laminates. This combining of these two high-tech techniques decreased costs of both of them, and made them applicable in a product.

Gaudi-stool:
carbon-composite, polyamide. 1kg.

The project includes a series of designs for furniture.

Of these unrealized designs, the Gaudi-chair is currently being developed in cooperation with Dutch research institute TNO

Secret out

what do you get to let out a secret behind some technique, some way of doing things.
Very optimistically saying, you let out a possibility of improvement and better way of doing things.

CHAIRS

some classics and some modern and post modern furniture designs which are a constant inspiration. The red chair is by Verner Pantom, Danish designer. There are chairs by Alvar Aalto, FLWright, Le Corbusier, rocking chair, Easy chair, Lounge chair, Diamond chair by designer Bertuia, sofa by danish designer Finn Juhl.
