SUPER CHAIR | INNOVATIVE DESIGN
Nicholas Baker’s original inspiration came from the idea to create a chair that could be recognized by its silhouette. There are many cantilever or “S” style chairs, but the addition of a diagonal line through the profile of the chair adds a unique dynamism. Also, the front view of the chair becomes a monolithic surface which contrasts the side view giving the chair a unique and recognizable design. Baker used virtual reality technology to design the chair by pushing and pulling the form from a single plane. Thanks to VR the designer was able to model the chair efficiently and accurately, he started from a singular plane, and easily pushed and pulled the surfaces till obtaining an organic shape.
