Convertible Anatomy Chairs

The Spyndi Takes its Shape Inspiration from the Curves of a Human Spine

— June 9, 2016 — Art & Design
The Spyndi chair is a rustic seat that is designed to be convertible to suit the environment of the user, with a design that is pieced together using blocks inspired by the shape of the human spine. The chair includes a series of connecting planks that snap together with the shape of a vertebrae that can be rearranged and stacked in a multitude of forms and seating arrangements. The build-able design allows home owners to structure the chair's shape to suit their needs and provide personalized seating with endless variety.

The chair is formed out of wood that has been carved and sanded into an array of thin rectangular blocks. The strips can be linked together to form a chair that is angular, curved or even flat. The Spyndi is also treated for both indoor as well as outdoor use.
