Oato’s Quirky Stuck Chair Reinterprets the Archetypal Chair

Oato [4]‘s crafty Stuck Chair [5] takes the shape of a deconstructed archetypal chair [6] that’s been rearranged anew, using tension as a bond to ensure its pieces remain “stuck” together. The seating and the legs are crafted from wood [7] that makes them squirm tight, and the backrest is made out of steel so the chair won’t lose its shape when outside force is applied. Oato [4]‘s chair is a research project exploring new possibilities in both construction and material [8].
