chair - 2016
1ST PLACE: INES ROTAR, CHAIR IN PICTURE, SLOVENIA
The chair in the picture is a tribute to nature, it quickly and easily transforms from a beautiful wall painting of textures into a comfortable chair. It is easy to remove from the wall and folded with a quick fold. The chair also solves the problem of smaller apartments, as it can be placed on the wall when not in use and serves as a wonderful decoration.
2ND PLACE: JURADO MICHAEL, ORIGIN, FRANCE
Irregularity, no straight lines, simplicity, these are some of the key words I remember from that afternoon in the park. I wanted the user to feel exactly what I felt sitting at the foot of this tree.
A sense of reassurance despite the irregularities and unevenness of the wood, a sense of simplicity despite the random shapes that surround me. “When I look at our houses, I am struck by this succession of straight lines and curves, which cannot escape my view that they are artificial. Only humanity seems to imagine and create straight lines. They don't exist in nature, just like in space."
3RD PLACE: JASNA HROVATIN AND ROK HROVATIN, PICCCHAIR, SLOVENIA
The picCHAIR serves as an additional seat, which is used when a larger number of seats are needed. It is also useful as a side table next to the dining table, sofa bed, etc. The chair is designed so that it can be quickly disassembled and assembled. The name of the chair is picCHAIR, because its seat surface can be hung on the wall as a picture or as a decorative object. The seat is processed in different ways, thereby bringing the chair closer to the needs and wishes of different target groups, and also allows for completely personalized processing according to the specific wishes of the client.
