Stacking Classic Chairs
How different would it be to have the very classics of chair design reinterpreted as stackable plastic chairs? Dirk Winkel, from the University of The Arts Berlin, finds out in his project ‘A Stacking Hommage’ (sic). I guess these are really classics – even when recast in another (cheap) material, they still retain an elegant form and proportion – that’s probably what made them real classics through the many decades.
For those of us who aspire to but can’t afford the real classics, we’re going to be disappointed again, as these are not for sale.
Dirk has some other works in his portfolio site here too.
“these are not for sale” – why not ? bet a lot of people are willing to have one
ha ya actually can be very nice. but hey the first design doesn’t look structurely correct
Tuvie,
That’s on my mind too.
Linyou,
Not structurally correct = ?

tt’s what i feel from looking at it. the legs used to be made of chrome steel. therefore that profile. but when u r using PP and maintaining the same profile, i think the legs will give way. he isn’t selling them yet cos all of them r probably more in concept stage. but then again tt’s just my opinion.
it will be really nice if they r available
