The continual chair
'the continual chair' designed by david lee
'the continual chair,' designed by david lee, of metous studio, transforms a common object into the site of physical dialogue
between past, present, and future users.
set in a grid, each of 123 tubes can be pushed down to any height, permitting users to construct their own unique space.
over time these transformations necessarily flatten the chair completely, at which point it can be flipped over
and the process begun anew.
example evolution of the chair
the chair prior to any user interaction
pushing down on individual tubes sets them at the desired height
chair in mid-transformation
over time, user interaction will flatten the chair completely
raising the legs in preparation for flipping the chair over to begin the process anew; in this way, the chair can continually be retransformed
