DESIGN NAME: Virgo
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Chair
INSPIRATION: Truthfully, I was watching the movie 'Underworld Evolution' and I thought to myself, "I really like that character but I wish he was sitting in a better chair". Something more suitable; more vampires meet 2050. I incorporated this spark, with my love for the 17th Century Italian Design, to come up with this piece.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Combining modern production techniques with traditional fabrics. I expanded on the concept of Mélange, by fusing together different techniques and mediums, namely photography, leather, bronze casting, and carved metal, which resulted into these amazingly unique creations. Specifically, in this design, I synthesized reflective organic bronze forms with rich luminous materials, which resulted in this fluid chair.
