Chair prototype 1
First prototype of a possible chair. It's inspired by Enzo Mari's ideas of being able to make domestic necessities, using stock timber, simple hand tools and everyday skills. There's an echo of Utility furniture from the 1940s and a hint of Gerrit Rietveld's prototype Red and Blue chair from 1917 too.
Chair prototype 1, standard section pine, plywood and super-screws, London c2018.
