The 'Ethereal Chair' by Marc Fish is Supportively Minimal
Michael Hemsworth — June 17, 2019 — Art & Design
The 'Ethereal Chair' is a furniture piece by Britain-based industrial designer Marc Fish that conveys a sculptural aesthetic for consumers to appreciate when integrated into a home or office. Part of the designer's Ethereal Series, the chair is made from sycamore wood along with acrylic resin that gives the seat a somewhat slick aesthetic. The furniture piece is achieved using a micro stack-lamination technique that consists of wooden and poured resin for a high-end finish that's inherently durable.
The 'Ethereal Chair' features a curvilinear look and feel that conveys a stylish appearance when positioned in a space without compromising when it comes to comfort. The chair will be showcased at the Todd Merill art gallery.
