Dent Chair by o4i DesignStudio for Blå Station:
Dent Chair de studio suédois o4i incarne l’idée de l’élégance et la simplicité . Il est l’antithèse de l’idéal. C’est une chaise jamais vu auparavant et nous osons dire ne laissera personne indifférent. L’histoire de la chaise Dent a commencé avec l’idée d’essayer de réaliser l’impossible: pour mouler une surface à double courbure 3D de placage régulier, utilisant une couche-collé moulé par compression des cendres de bois sont empilable.
Description from o4i DesignStudio:
The Dent chair challenges the idea of the sleek and beautiful. It is the antithesis of perfect. It is a chair never seen before and, we dare to say, won’t leave anyone indifferent. The story of Dent chair started with the idea of trying to achieve the impossible: to mould a double-curved 3D surface out of regular veneer. At the same time, the story of Dent is the story of how the rejected became the selected. We have had many years’ experience of designing chairs using traditional plywood moulding techniques, always trying to extend the boundaries of what is possible without “cheating” by using expensive 3D veneer. With Dent we decided to be even bolder, by taking a step beyond where we have already been, out of our comfort zone and into the unknown.
