The Hypertrophy Chair by NOCC is part of the Radiation Collection, which imagines a scenario in which traditional industrial design would had their genes mutated as a result of having been exposed to radiation poisoning at an event like Chernobyl.
The evolution of the objects would produce, or so the designers imagine, pieces like the Hypertrophy Chair would have extended limbs kind of like Mr. Fantastic. The designers hope that through this exploration they can change the classical, archetypical shapes of furniture.
