The Ashes
Expressive ‘Selfportrait’ chair by Ka-Lai Chan
A few days back, we came up with Obese Sofa and Eames lounges. Cool they were, isn’t it? Well, if you loved those cute pieces of home furniture then I bet you’ll fancy this one too. Designed by Ka-Lai Chan, Utrecht School of the Arts graduate, ‘Selfportrait’ is a cool bulging chair. Not a part of conventional chairs, this represents the designer’s suppressed emotions. As y’all can see, some of the parts of the chair are swollen and bulging, while textile elements break through the surface symbolize her personality. The holes in the skin symbolize the inside of the designer that’s carving to come out. Overall, this innovative chair expresses the designer’s own personality and character. I would love to take Ka-Lai’s emotions home.
