Sleek Space-Age Seating

The MT4 Invasion Chair Provides Relaxation That's Out of This World

— February 18, 2010 — Art & Design
It is always interesting to see people reinvent the chair, indeed it is almost like reinventing the wheel. With a design so simple and perfect, one wonders how someone can improve on such a structure. The MT4 Invasion Chair may not be the next big breakthrough in the science of seating but it does look to be a pretty damn durable seat.

Designed by Jean-Jacques Jungers for MT4 Architects, the MT4 Invasion Chair mixes elements of "abstraction, figuration, and functionality," according to Mr. Jungers. The way it's made, the MT4 Invasion Chair looks like it could take almost any amount of weight, something most conventional chairs can't claim.
