«10 Nodes»

The «10 Nodes» armchair. height 80 cm, width 80 cm, length 90 cm. weight 18kg. circulation of 10 copies. the cost is 150,000 rubles. The name of the chair stands for «10 pcs connecting nodes.» Materials: Felt, wooden cuttings, Pet plastic, cotton. Two materials are used in the construction of the frame: recycled PET plastic printed on a 3D printer from bottles, and wooden cuttings from garden tools. The upholstery of the chair is one large piece of felt, on which paint is applied, a pigment resistant to water. Felt is a natural, biodegradable material with unique strength characteristics, resistant to rain, snow, and the sun. The design of the chair arose from the task of using the connecting nodes in the frame as little as possible, as a result, it was possible to achieve a minimum number of 10 pcs, which is also reflected in the name of the chair. Since the felt is rolled by hand, I noticed that sometimes blades of grass, seeds, threads were included in the material, and this inspired me to introduce color and texture into the felt, only to make it more saturated and bright. The chair can be used both indoors and on outdoor terraces, under the open sky.
