Nabolis Chair

This chair is a bold experiment in layering of material, color and meaning. Wilsonart laminate, itself a product composed of multiple layers of material, is applied in a series of layers to form a topographic surface. The character of the chair’s surface was derived from the designer’s photographic study of weathering in commonplace man-made materials. A palette of colors from the standard Wilsonart line was selected to add resonance between the transforming layers.
