Gaudi Chair by Studio Geenen
The “Gaudi Chair” by dutch studio Geenen is the follow-up of the “Gaudi Stool” which was created in 2009. It was designed using the same method employed by Antoni Gaudi, who made models of hanging chains, which upside-down showed him the strongest shape for his churches. additionally, to be able to determine the structure of the chair’s backrest, a software script was used.
Materials and techniques were chosen to create a lightweight chair. The surface is made of carbon fiber, the ribs are made of glass-filled nylon, fused by selective laser sintering.
