I know little to nothing about this possible barn find?
Materials painted plywood and mixed metal painted red. Folding chair, carry. Copies ancient sgabello form but uses modern materials.
After Holger Schell and Robert Venturi.
If I'm making any assumptions it reminds me of the series Andries Van Onck did, work titled "totem cloth hanger"
Do you think it's a early prototype or commercial like the work Phillip Stark and Yrio Kukkapuro completed?
Any case please weigh in.
could we have more photos , please and if theres any mrkings please show us. great chair.
