french studio, pitaya have designed 'random8', a seemingly transparent chair
that changes in its appearance as light passes through it.

eight faceted pieces of clear dichroic plexiglass are braced between an open
metal frame, transferring color and geometric patterns onto the surrounding walls,
ceiling and floor. the chair is in constant play with its given environment, whether
indoors or out, changing in color and intensity depending on the ambient light
and viewing angle.
