These Chairs by Richard Woods and Sebastian Wrong look like they were taken straight out of a cartoon show.
Richard Woods and Sebastian Wrong achieve this effect by tracing each edge of wood with a thick black line of paint. They also use similar black contour lines to resemble wooden patterns. The color style is also very animated, especially in the multi-colored seat.
These painting techniques result in the chairs looking as though they were illustrated and then pulled into 3-dimensional reality. They are captivating to look at and almost have a nostalgic feel because of their childish cartoon style. Although they look as though they are not real, they would certainly bring life to any interior environment.
