Especially to resolve the problem of the storage of many chairs, for an event, conference, concert, etc.. But, this interesting idea remained (following my taste), unfinished! In that case, as he mentioned rightly in his comment, Daveconrey: " … it is art, not design." This ludic idea can be more rich when it brings a true solution like self autonomy without an addition of any real chair. Anyway, that depends on the designer good willing! To conclude, I like this provocative idea! ;) Francois Beydoun This design can be more than an aesthetic form, but a true solution.

Isn't a kind of style by just putting different type of chair in the situation of photo #2? 2) Polyethylene foam is totally not good for environment. Please don't proudly say that you only do a little work on so many pieces of polyethylene foam to produce only a cover, unless you can turn the same piece of polyethylene foam into a real chair. 1) Why we have to cover chairs?

I personally find this object quite smart and well thought, it defenetly shows some commitment and at least some reasoning in the design process. I guess it can be used in convention halls or public events to revamp some ugly stock chairs usually kept hidden in the basement. Only small disappoinment on the final shape of the final result: maybe the rectangular basic structure could be modified to achive better shape and design once folded and used 9for example to cover the wood part that shows through in the firs pic). Anyway good effort.. will check the website (by the way.. not to restart some issue on the comments.. but come on give us something more that "cool" or "awesome"... on personal feelings.. it would be great to have some proper polite discussions on design) Finally something that gets me out of “lazy-mode” and asks for a comment..
