Chen Kuan-Cheng Unveils the Innovative Flip Chair Design
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Chen Kuan-Cheng, a renowned designer from Taoyuan City, Taiwan, introduces the Flip chair, a unique furniture piece inspired by the serene sensation of lounging on a grassy lawn. The chair's "flip" theme captures the graceful movement of grass in the wind, creating a dynamic and organic form that offers users an immersive natural experience.
The Flip chair's design process involved utilizing Grasshopper programming to simulate the fluidity and folds of the seat, while the wood was meticulously bent into shape using steam, replicating the natural curves and contours of the grassy landscape. The resulting product offers a unique and comfortable sitting experience, akin to lounging on a custom-shaped patch of grass.
Measuring at 900mm in width, 350mm in depth, and 420mm in height, the Flip chair was meticulously crafted in Taiwan, with the project commencing in April 2020 and concluding in August 2021. The design project presented creative and technical challenges, which were effectively overcome through innovative design techniques and specialized production methods.
Kuan design studio, based in Taiwan, specializes in product and furniture design, particularly focusing on utilizing Taiwan's high-quality bamboo and bent wood to create innovative designs that showcase the value of Taiwan's craftsmanship. Chen Kuan-Cheng's Flip chair design has been recognized with the prestigious Silver A' Design Award in 2023, highlighting its outstanding expertise, innovation, and remarkable level of excellence.
