stories exhibition at the powerhouse museum, sydney.

bosse, director of architectural firm LAVA, is one of several designers commissioned by
the powerhouse to use a pre-loved chair to tell a story about a piece of furniture they love.
he chose a design classic that relates to current design and manufacturing techniques.

design and manufacturing techniques. it anticipated the digital revolution by 30 years and is
the first freeform, organic molded piece of furniture.
