maezm: bone x skin

the 'bone' and the 'skin'
korean studio maezm (shin taiho) has designed 'bone x skin', a chair constructed from a lightweight wooden frame and solid
carbon fiber. the shape of the chair is made from simple lines set as a structural bone supporting an epidermis - the carbon fiber.
the concept of 'bone and skin' is deduced from its combination of materials and forms.

'bone x skin'

gallery window display
the chair was exhibited during tokyo designers week 2010 and at one-gallery exhibition in seoul, korea.

gallery window display (detail)
last year, maezm participated in the 2009 designboom mart in tokyo.
it is always good to see that it works as a first presentation, before designers invest in a personal show.
This project was proceeded with joint works of KDM (Korea Design Membership) students http://www.koreadesignmembership.com/kdm/ and MAEZM (designer Shin Taiho) http://www.maezm.com and cooperation with DGDC center and Material Connextion Daegu, and productions are displayed through Tokyo Designersweek in tokyo and one-gallery exhibition in Seoul, 2010.
Thank you.
