This Kasese chair is so innovative I just had to post it. For a start, it only has three legs and folds totally flat. An uber slick ‘guest chair,’ if you will.
Holland-based Hella Jongerius was the designer, while Jongeriuslab manufactured it. Sadly, it is not currently being made for consumers. The Kasese chair is comprised of carbon fiber on top of glass fiber, with a felt covering.
You can’t buy these chairs new any more, but if you want to see them, then one is in the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York.
What Makes This Trend Stand Out
- Carbon Fiber Seating
- The use of carbon fiber in chair design could lead to more lightweight and innovative seating options.
- Flat-folding Furniture
- Designing furniture that can fold flat for easy transportation and storage creates opportunities for innovation in small living spaces and commercial settings.
- Minimalist Chair Design
- A focus on simplicity and functionality in furniture design could lead to new and innovative chair designs.
Sectors Adopting This
- Furniture Design
- Innovations in chair design could revolutionize the furniture industry and create more efficient and portable options for consumers.
- Transportation Industry
- Designing portable and lightweight seating options could expand into the transportation sector, providing more comfortable and easily transportable seating for various modes of travel.
- Museums and Art Galleries
- The use of unique materials and innovative design in furniture could create opportunities for museum exhibits and art galleries to showcase functional art pieces.
