Andrew Perkins, jeune designer américain vient nous présenter son nouveau modèle de chaise qui va sans doute vous rappeler vos cours de Physique - Chimie d’antan nommée Synapse.
Une inspiration non dissimulée de cet élément de notre corps humain, savamment ré-interprété par une structure de bois et d’acier. L’ensemble des articulations d’une chaise en une seule pièce d’acier inoxydable sur laquelle pieds, assise et dossier vont venir se fixer formant une étoile
Une conception simple, permettant l’empilement, chose très appréciée de nos jours…
Plus d’information sur Andrew Perkins :
“Andrew Perkins thinks in furniture. He wonders how a table can make people smile or how a shelf can bring significance to what we already own. For him, everyday objects have a power and a voice beyond their immediate function. They reflect where and how we exist, both physically and emotionally. He recognizes that the way we live and what we buy needs to change and believes his designs and methods can help.
Born and raised in the Santa Cruz Mountains, Andrew now calls San Francisco his home. Designing and building locally with organic and recyclable materials is central to his work. However, Andrew strongly believes that sustainable design is foremost about the quality and emotional longevity of the object. Andrew strives for this core principle by combining his experience as a cabinetmaker with a world class education in design. He knows that if the idea isn’t present than the object will not persist. “
