under the direction of professor jiři pelcl, the studio of architecture had a display of furniture designs by students. chair designs all made from metal were presented. some designs were made of flat sheet metal that was bent to create curving forms. other designs were made from metal rod making the chairs seem more like skeletal frames, giving a sense of air and lightness about them despite the heavy material they were made from.
