‘On the Museum’s Ruin (Morris – Hunt – Corbusier – Piano)’ (2010) by Liz Glynn
Created at the Carpenter Center for the Visual Arts, designed by le Corbusier, during the renovation of the Fogg Museum of Art, initially designed by William Morris Hunt, with renovation by Renzo Piano. The chairs were cast based on Le Corbusier’s iconic LC2 design using rubble from the museum renovation.
‘Breuer’, ‘Rietveld’ and ‘Eames’ from the series ‘Just chairs’ (2011) by Michael Kluver
The chairs in Kluver’s series are altered versions of modernist design classics. All pushed back into the simple archetypal form, all of them now are dominated by simple ergonomic dimensions. Same seating height, seating width, seating depth, overall height, and angle of the backrest.
Kessler changed the mechanics on the entrance to Lombard-Freid Projects in New York so that the door opened in a different direction each time it was used.
