SuperFoam_Seating_Rich_Gilbert1

“SuperFoam” Seating by Rich Gilbert is an experimental project conducted by the student Rich Gilbert at the Royal College of Art in London. The chair is made from a foam casting in a square structure filled with balloons.

Making of SuperFoam Chair from Rich Gilbert on Vimeo.

What if we had the power to manipulate nature’s structures?
SuperFoam is a re-creation of naturally occurring reticulated foam structures through a casting process that facilitates designing the properties of the foam itself. By developing the casting process the properties of the foam could be controlled so the chair flexed and deformed to create a supportive structure.

Phat Knits created by Dutch designer Bauke Knottnerus is a series of brilliantly over scaled furniture pieces.
