An interpretation of the visual language of four famous artists captured in their own individual chairs.

Danish designer Benjamin Nordsmark built four sculptural chairs that generate interesting ideas and challenge his craftsmanship. By using different materials and working methods for each one, he built up four chairs with strong identities that make it easy to recognize the artist that each one of them was inspired by.

Gaudi Chair

The thin body of the chair gives a great comfort to the seated person and the shape of the body creates some incredible shadows.

This illusion was created by drawing 3D patterns at the right angle with three different colors. The main body of the chair is in heavy oak wood, while the frame underneath was built with thin steel to make it appear really simple.

Picasso chair
