Meltdown Chair - Big Ball of Rope Becomes Chair
Big Ball of Rope Becomes Chair
 Published: Jun 24, 07

The meltdown chair is a big ball of polypropylene rope converted into a chair.  Part of the ball is singed at high heat to form the bucket that you’ll fall asleap in.  The chair was designed by London born designer Tom Price.

This chair is created by heating and pressing a seat-shaped former into a ball of polypropylene rope. The rope begins to liquify as it comes into contact with the heated former and, as it cools, it sets in the shape of a seat creating a contrast in form and texture to the remaining rope. No additional material has been added to make the seat - it is all made from melted rope. (yankodesign)
