arthur bodolec: jack
arthur bodolec with his 'jack' chair
french product designer arthur bodolec has created 'jack', a stool that can be brought
to 'life' through a simple touch. imagining a world where objects can be woken up, given
life and take form to express themselves, 'jack' is the first in a series of designs that
transforms from an inert stool to a full functioning chair.
'jack' in stool mode
applying pressure to the center of the stool allows the surrounding panels to raise
sketch demonstrating the functionality of 'jack'
second generation of 'jack' furniture
based on its predecessor, the second generation of 'jack' furniture takes the form of
a flower whose petals raise upon sitting.
awesome !!!!!!!!!!

the only problem I see is that you can not rest your back as a normal chair, because the torque produced in the back is too small

G'dday Arthur,
Great design. I was wondering whether you've made one? Does it have a locking capability when in "stool mode" as well as "normal chair"?
Cheers

Hey, thank you again !
@jetwax: yes you can lock it on the stool mode!
@joe: my advice for your drink is to lock the chair before putting it on the arm and as you won't forget to unlock it, you won't forget to take out your drink !

I love how the design comes from something as innocuous as a jacob's ladder. The flower chair is fantastic also. Is that one going to use the same idea is the original?
Liz 05.04.10
those chairs are really amazing. If you haven't yet started to manufacture them, I think you should. I'd buy the last one for sure.
