Dirk van der Kooij, 2011 Recycled plastic The Endless Chair is Dirk van der Kooij’s hard-fought graduation project. In a worldwide first, he reconfigured a pneumatic robot arm to extrude furniture from recycled plastic. Whilst our current robots extrude with a steady hand, the scalloping has been maintained intentionally. Now printed from warm transparent plastic, the gentle undulations heighten light refraction and invite comparisons to cut crystal. In its year of design, the Endless chair won acclaim in the form of the Dutch Design Award. It sits happily in the MoMA, Stedelijk Museum, Design Museum London and the Centre Pompidou. |
