Dirk van der Kooij, 2013 The Chubby chair remains the most playful child of Dirk’s self-developed extruding robot. Its friendly, anthropomorphic form is imparted by limitations in the robot's memory. The result is a chair made as simply as possible: with no memory space for extra information, the Chubby is constructed from a basic pattern of structural lines. As the colour is achieved through sporadically introducing pigment to the extruder, each chair is to be considered a one-off in terms of its unique colour expression. |
