Washington skin™

David Adjaye's cantilevered chairs establish a play between propping and balancing, so that they are simultaneously functional and sculptural. Washington Skin™ is a colorful solid, while its inverted counterpoint, Washington Skeleton™, is reduced to a fine geometric lattice sharing the same envelope. FEATURES The Washington Collection for Knoll, David Adjaye's first collection of furniture, transforms his architectural and sculptural vision into accessible objects for the home and office. The two cantilevered chairs - Washington Skeleton™ and Washington Skin™ - establish a play between propping and balancing, so that they are simultaneously functional and sculptural. CONSTRUCTION Injection molded, glass reinforced nylon cantilevered chair. The chair's shell and legs are cast in three parts and are connected using mortise and tenon joinery and stainless steel fasteners. The unique leg design is reinforced internally with a cast aluminum brace that is over-molded with nylon. The chair features four integral glides that elevate and protect the leg profile. FINISHES The chair is available in three UV stable colours: black, red and white. *Nylon chair is not suitable for outdoor use.
