Konstruktion Und Transformation

Design and make seating furniture using wood! An experimental study project on the subject of furniture making with structural impulses lead to unexpected uses of wood: wood as a fabric, as a fine lattice, as a thin and hollow part, as a sculptural rod structure, as a soft stack, as a feather, or as an interwoven fabric. Eight students from the Object Design course at Lucerne University—Art & Design and the Structural Design course at the architecture faculty of ETH Zurich show seating objects as transformations of constructive principles. With contributions by Martin Krammer, Mario Rinke, Andreas Saxer, Christoph Schindler, and Joseph Schwartz
