LESE CHAIR BY KONSTANTIN ACHKOV

The Lese chair is a minimalistic, interlocking, puzzle structure. The unnecessary elements in the construction are avoided, thus emphasizing on the unique shape. Ergonomics is provided by specific inclines in all directions. The hardwood beech legs give strength but also redirect to the classical chairs from the past. The seat and the back are produced from transparent, extremely strong polycarbonate, which allow the beauty of the construction to remain visible.

RABBIT JOINT CHAIR BY RYAN YOON AND HARC LEE

"Through this project, we explore a few different ways to join two objects. It was very exciting to see a typical and ordinary component such as a joint became a major characteristic of a chair."

Six rabbit joints made of bio resin are used in the Rabbit Joint Chair to hold the seat, back and legs together. To make the joinery, rabbit ears are carved on the seat and several holes aligned with the ears are drilled on the leg. Bio resin is then poured into the rabbit ears until the resin flows into the holes and fills all the paths.
