Remy and Veenhuizen in DC
-
This chair of poured concrete is one of the prototypes on view at Industry Gallery. -
Here we see the chair and stool made of poured concrete on display in Washington DC. -
Despite being made of concrete, the series of chair, stool, and bench have a kind of plush quality in their slightly bulging forms. -
The series of prototypes also includes a bench, seen at right. -
The Reef Bench from 2009 has an undulating, skeletal form. -
Installed at the Picasso Lyceum in Zoeternmeer in the Netherlands you can see how many varieties of sitting the 2009 Reef Bench encourages. -
Remy and Veenhuizen did the Leaf Furniture series in 2004. Here we see a picnic table and chairs. -
The Leaf Furniture series is made from cut aluminum. -
Installed at an elementary school in Dordrecht, the Netherlands, the Meeting Fence offers passersby a place to stop and chat. -
Steel and wood are the main materials here, and the seemingly billowing metal gives the illusion of a fence in motion. -
The 2006 Grow Bench is made of metal and tennis balls. After Andre Agassi and Steffi Graf's rather unfortunate foray into furniture design, I'll take this one for sure. -
The design duo made a series of six of these Bamboo Chairs. Two will be at Industry Gallery. -
Dutch design does a chair for the tropics. -
Appearing to be some forgotten woolen continent, the Accidental Carpet from 2008 is made from recycled blankets. -
This carpet reminds me of a topo map, or some colorful amoeba.
