Layers Cloud Chair by Richard Hutten
The Dutch designer Richard Hutten presents the new innovative “Layers Cloud” Chair in the Kvadrat’s Divina exhibition. “I wanted the design to be about the textile,” said Hutten. “Rather than using the material as a cover, I created an object with the material.”
The afore mentioned chair is created entirely from Kvadrat’s multicoloured Divina fabric and it was an “ispirazione” mainly by rock pigments at the Painted Desert in Arizona. The seat is made out of 100 diverse shades of material, which gives it an outstandingly intriguing visual and natural composition. The comfortable seat is manufactured from a “whopping 545 stacked layers”.
The fabrication mechanism of the Layers Cloud chair follows an accurate process starting with the drawing of each single layer, then continuing on with the cutting out technique by commonly using the “Computer numerical control machine” (CNC) and last but not least assemble them by hand.
