It looks like jeepey backrests here in the Philippines. Very same material and concept. Nice work anyway

It’s supposed to be unstable, of course,if designers wanted stability would have 4 feet like a chair. relax Fabiana, that’s fun !!

It’s supposed to be unstable. Things that rock are inherently unstable on purpose.

This chair remember me an old little chair that my father in god gave to me when I was jsut 3 years old. It was pink.

This one is nice, but looks to me not much confortable… I don´t know exactly how to explain this in English. Let me see… “unstable” is the correct word?

That’s really nice… it’s always good to see something that inspires and put a smile on my face! That’s what design is all about… Congratz!

This is excellent design, although I would prefer if the cord was made of a more natural material.

really very nice, lovely idea, lovely colours, best seat i’ve seen for ages – also not too ‘serious’

I have kids and they fall on their butts all day. They would love this. Me? I don’t know

You know who would really love this? Mathematicians.

I agree with the designers description that these have “a strong emotional interaction.” These look really fun.

If someone gave you two rings and some cord, could you create anything better than this?

I wonder if this is inspired by some architecture. I think I’ve seen some roofs of pavillions that use a similar technique.

It’s very nice, and like others have said, it would produce a strong yet light structure.

These would be very portable.

Designs like this that use cords under tension always have a great strength to weight ratio. It’s actually the whole basis of the design, it’s very light and simple, yet amazingly strong and durable.

You can probably throw this across the room and not damage it at all.

J York, get your mind out of your wallet. If you’re visiting websites that feature design like this and judging everything you see based on its commercial value and whether you would buy it or not, your in the wrong place.

The designs you see on design websites like this are much more about the idea behind the design, then whether or not it’s worth the money or if it will last a million years.

Learn to appreciate the ideas behind the designs. Don’t be so superficial.

Won’t make it, sorry, Just looks too cheap.
A fad looking waste of my time, to even consider buying something that looks like it might last two weeks.
It’s so funny looking, I have to laugh when I look at it.

really nice take on the woven furniture. Would love to have some of those for outdoors at home. Comfortable, bright colours and nice design.
