About Existence Cadeira

Existence é unha cadeira deseñada para pensar. A cadeira é tratada como unha peza de arquitectura que define un límite e deixa espazo para que a mente o complete. Fixéronse dous prototipos de aceiro inoxidable. Sentarse en Existence require atención e esforzo muscular, polo que a cadeira limita a comodidade física co fin de liberar a mente. Cada cadeira mide 1000 mm de ancho, 800 mm de profundidade e 600 mm de altura. Os prototipos foron moldeados a man, e axustáronse diferentes técnicas para alcanzar unha precisión exacta.
