presented at salone satelite during milan design week 2013, japanese designer junpei tamaki has created ‘2450’, a collection of chairs that only uses 5mm acrylic sticks for its construction. although fragile on an individual basis, the form becomes reinforced when built like an architecture structure. implementing the theme of ‘the power of weakness’, the seating utilizes 2450 meticulously arranged components, measuring just over a kilometer in length when laid end to end.
