The Beehive Chair by Graham Roebeck
New Zealand-based architectural designer Graham Roebeck’s Beehive chair has been judged the winner of the inaugural 2011 Formica Formations competition.
.
Exploring the theme of today’s highly portable art and media –interpreted through the analogy of sculpture as frozen music- the form is that of a non portable guitar pick and a gourd that are rendered immovable. Frozen.
Queenstown architectural designer Graham Roebeck’s Beehive was judged the winner of the inaugural 2011 Formica Formations competition, by the Laminex Group and was realised by acclaimed designer David Trubridge.
Constructed from Lakepine Zero low emitting MDF, Beehive has beeswax polish to the edges, and uses Warm White Formica high pressure laminate to the vertical faces.
