Slice Chair

Good lord I've been overwhelmingly busy at work this week.

I'll keep this short - but check out this ridiculously cool chair from Mathias Bengtsson. Bengtsson combines 3-D modeling, laser cutting and hand crafting techniques to create organic looking work that has deep technological roots.

Check out more of his work at his site.



"
The form is modeled by hand then digitized by a computer, then sliced. The resulting shape of each slice is mapped onto an aluminum, corrugated cardboard or plywood sheet, which is cut accordingly. When the stack is re-assembled, a chair is formed, looking like a kind of symmetrical erosion."
