CABINETMAKERS AUTUMN EXHIBITION 97


ROCKING CHAIR

DESIGN: PETER STUDSGARTH  /  MADE BY TEKNOLOGISK INSTITUT, TRÆTEKNIK
Changing the positioning and folding of a seat/back element suspended in a turnable frame results in an armchair, easy chair or rocking chair, with a high or low back.

The seat/back element consists of three identical form-moulded plywood shells held together with four belts, suspended in two frames in compressed wood linked by two poles.

The chair is intended for small living spaces - for example, hotel rooms, student accommodation and cabins on ships and oil platforms.

The prototype has been produced in oil-treated ash.
