Description

A metal chair inspired by yarn bombing and upholstered by crocheting. Steel frame with colored cotton yarn.
The design was created for the Rephrasals project in Malmö Form/Design Center as an interpretation of Inez Svensson’s Randig Banan textile print from 1986. Both are soft and rich in contrast while breaking with conforming ideals. The yarn texture creates a warm organic covering layer over the cold steel structure. The chair is available in various colors and with optional materials for crocheting on demand.
