The aim is to create a cutting edge volume, resembling a massive brutalist architectural structure. Fascinated by the contrast between the volume and the void, an original block transformation is carved and shaped into space and straight lines that becomes a functional seat, a backrest and a base.
Project Name: Bunker Stuhl The Architect’s Chair Competition 1St Price
Studio Name: De Gregorio Henriksen Architects
A cross between history and modernity, the monolithic furniture piece, rigid, geometrical and graphically shaped, is enhanced by the smoothness of the polished material, made entirely by recycled polymer, giving the entire piece a luxe-minimalist look.
Pushing the boundaries of furniture “home” design, seemingly challenging the viewer to determine where the design begins to take form as a furniture piece instead of just a statement sculptural art installation piece.
Bunker Stuhl provides contemporary design and ergonomic features, satisfying the basic seating requirements. It is an environment-friendly chair made of 100% recyclable polyethylene, according with the rules:
– Eco-designed (ISO 14006) UNE-EN ISO 14006
– Environment management system that meetsISO 14001
– Highly recyclable PP with low additive content, according to EU recommendations for the improvement of plastic recyclability.
