Stuck Chair

Dutch designers Oato created the Stuck chair by dissecting an archetypical chair and rearranging the elements to make it look as if they were simply stuck together. The Stuck chair is made from oak wood and has a powder-coated steel backrest. The seat is lodged in place by the diagonally crossing chair legs that pass through it. These legs are secured by screws where they intersect each other and where they meet the backrest. Chief designer Stefan Tervoort explains that "we are interested in a more poetic side in design, so a more conceptual, shape driven approach..."


Oato received an Honourable mention for the Stuck chair at the Thonet initiated ARC12 Chair Design Competition in Utrecht in August 2012.
