Traditional Materials With A Modern Perspective …
These Chairs are made out of organic materials without toxins, but has the qualities of plastic. The Korean design group Maezm has conducted an experiment which explores the possibilities of hanji, a traditional paper substance, in a modern setting. The handmade porous paper is used in Korean architecture for its thermal properties and ability to control moisture. It is made from the inner bark of the paper mulberry tree which is known as ‘dak’. Dak, the base ingredient of the material, is mixed with prepared hanji and glutinous rice paste glue and placed into a mold just like any common plastic product. Once extracted, it is further strengthened with another layer of hanji. The only hardener used is flour and to give it a nice finish. It is coated with a korean lacquer made from the sumac plant.

Sophie de Vocht designed these chaise lounge for the italian furniture company casamania. It is a part of the company’s new collection 2011. The dutch designer interest in the ‘tufting’ technique, typically used for making carpets, is characterized by a high number of tufts of yarn inserted through needles on a fabric base.
The chair features a metal structure in which over-sized yarn is woven through to create a softness. The main base and seat are tightly woven, gradually getting looser in their stitching along the length of the chaise lounge, eventually fanning out over the floor making it an object that stands between carpet and furniture.
