Form follows intuition Collection: Marmelade chair

Marmelade chair blends industrial and product design, resulting in a furniture that exist at the intersection of function and art. The chair stungs the viewer with a surprise: one may wonder, what is it that holds the pieces together?

The design reflects on the dialogue between handmade imperfection and machine made perfection. In the world where mass production means objects that are perfectly all the same, the chair debates: how can a “mark of human hand”- the irregular, imperfect forms - be seen in machinery produced pieces?

It all starts from a sketch, without thinking and without control, following a direct transition into digital form. Using CNC-milling the forms are able to explore how spontaneity can exist in industrially produced objects.
