Far Right: Furnitures for Tokyo's Nomad Women, 1986












Concept sketch evolving from a composed image of a composed image of a chair designed by Toyo Ito. The structure, like the chair, supports the human body, "...and softly envelopes it like clothes...whilst still floating in the air..."

Inspired by the works of El Lissitzky and his use of prouns

P.02 Mentor - Constant Nieuwenhuys

Constant Nieuwenhuys - "New Babylon"

The structural system dominates and floats over the ground. Constant's works consist of unbuilt projects that he created in his workshop. Continuous motion and a rethinking of spaces and the way those spaces are defined are key elements with Constant's work. Influenced heavily by Surrealist thought as well as a member of several key movements in philosophy, architecture and art (CoBRA, Situationist Internationalle, and influenced by members of Team 10 and CIAM).

P.02 - Process Collage Model

Toyo Ito's "Furniture for the Contemporary Nomad Women" (1986)

"The Chair supports the human body unlike the table, shelf, or other kinds of furniture - and softly envelops it like clothes. The chair must be soft and informal just as uttered words whilst still floating in the air before having any meaning attached. Eventually man and chair blend into one."
- Toyo Ito
