Pressed Chair

2D becomes 3D

Description
Pressed Chair
Design: Harry Thaler, 2011
High-tech Chair
In a company, which manufactures the hot curves of automotive chassis on a daily basis, our Pressed Chair finds itself in exactly the right hands. First, the contour is cut from a 2.5 mm thin piece of aluminium. In the second step the circulating curves and indentations are pressed into the material. Legs and backrest ultimately capture the correct angle using a mould. Incidentally, we initially tested the extreme carrying capacity of this construction using a number of sandbags. TÜV Rheinland later gave it their official seal.
The very beginning
Nils Holger Moormann discovered Harry Thaler as part of a talent platform at the Cologne furniture trade fair. The idea of producing a functional chair from a two dimensional piece of sheet metal, fascinated us from the outset. However, simple as it may look, the process was anything but. The development of the Pressed Chair ranks as one of the most lengthy and complex of all. But it was worth it. The Pressed Chair with its special construction and manufacture methods is ultimately a discovery in the world of furniture.
