Chair 'Scolaro'

Ask anything

  • patalano lila asked

    why did the creator create this chair? What was his objective? What is the message of this creation?

  • Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen answered

    Dear Patalano Lila,
    Grcic designed this chair for the Italian manufacturer Montina. In this case the designer wanted to design a chair that can be used as a flexible workplace. This chair would also be ideal for activities such as tutorials because when you sit on the narrow seat as sitting on a saddle, you can use the highly positioned square as a table-top. Best, Xin

More information

In 2000, Konstantin Grcic, the designer based in Munich, designed an extremely handy but at the same time rather strange piece of furniture for the Italian manufacturer Montina. The thing has three legs and a narrow seat on which you can sit as if on a saddle. This extends into a square, highly positioned table-top on which you can, for example, work at your laptop or college essay.
