Chair hand-woven from aluminium

By at 10:33 pm Wednesday, Jul 22

The Uvula chair is hand-woven from strips of alumnium -- sounds like a fun project for the kids on the weekend, providing you've got some decent hand- and eye-protection around:

Scream is a new aluminum chair from Bannavis Andrew Sribyatta of PIE Studio, an eco-friendly furniture design firm. Made with the same method as their prize-winning Steel Tongue chair, the piece is constructed by hand-weaving an aluminum skin over a stainless steel frame. According to PIE, " The inspiration derives from a screaming mouth exposing the Uvula. The Uvula moves down and touches the floor as one sits on the chair."
