Vaiven, 1988

 

Producer: Casas

(Out of production)

After a long development phase, the chair finally entered production; however, shortly later it was withdrawn from the catalogue. Something was wrong. The idea was to produce a comfortable office chair that would also be suitable for domestic use - for snoozing, reading, watching television or working - a chair that could spin around and combine with a side table and footrest.

    Was it perhaps overly complex, ambiguous, risky,....? The experience must have served some purpose however since, in 2001, Casas and OTB set about producing a another deluxe office chair named Seat & Plug, designed for those logging on for a comfortable Internet surfing session.
