During lockdown 1.0 Studio Argot created a selection of chairs that were designed as a research project, 3D modelled and rendered in far out materials.
Studio Argot reckons that you could probably make these with a CNC machine which is pretty epic. It’s a similar technology that they use to make their 3D printed vases which are highly worth checking out. Each of the forms they’ve designed that make up the chairs could be easily cut and assembled using this process. Nice one guys.
Their aim is to produce interesting design that is produced at a local level with a degree of efficiency. A CNC machine is, they say, relatively small and easy to operate. Efficient and transparent costing design pieces can then be produced at a local level whether a micro factory in Paris - where they’re based - or somewhere else.
