Flat Chair by Sara Paculdo

I don't love it immediately, and yes, in fiberglass this chair doesnt sound too comfortable. But if it were made in leather, I could see it becoming very comfortable indeed, and the keather would also nod to the very obvious saddle shape.

(Always good to see common objects reimagined, even if they might not seem "right", they get a conversation started.)

Since they rely on curves for the sitting surface, they should have done a proper saddle chair shape instead. The current design prioritize the manufacturer/corporation over the user/human. This is a failure on my book.

This person is very talented but that chair looks super uncomfortable. Resting you arms on those thin armrests will hurt within seconds. But that's exactly the type of furniture my mom loves :)

Looks extremely uncomfortable and unstable.

It's cool but that rounded seat looks very uncomfortable. I could imagine it as a great item for a child's room though, if they could build it themselves from the flat sheet.

Except that I just don't subscribe to the idea that flatpackedness should be the guiding principle of furniture design.

The screws on the bottom will be under lots of strain I imagine

I wish they had shown a real version of the chair with a real human sitting on it.
