Materials used in a different way


Tejo Remy & René Veenhuizen have produced a chair that appears to be inflatable, but is actually cast from concrete. The Dutch designers have disguised a material associated with construction by forming it to look like something some individuals would have in their home, or are at least familiar with (inflatable furniture).


The objects are both visually appealing and a good example of how a designer can add value to a material by applying it to another situation.
