'stretch' by london-based carnevale studio (jessica carnevale) is a series of three stackable
chairs which are influenced in part by corsets. each chair starts as a powder coated steel frame.
experimenting with different materials such as latex tubing, bungee cords and silk rope,
carnevale builds up the backs and seats of the chairs through weaving these materials
into a patterned composition creating something visually vibrant and functional.

may be just coincidence but that looks like a revival to me: back in late 70's / early 80's there were sun bathing chaises in my country with exactly the same proposal,the weaving structure being made on translucent/opaque plastic tubes
