Diving chair: a mirrored image on trauma and resistance
The diving seat, designed by Philipp AduatINTEGRATES 3D printed concrete with a nuanced epoxy resin to create a visible distinction between the inflexible construction and the fluid kind. The design supplies the looks of a seat partially submerged in a bunch of purple, emphasizing the interplay between strong and liquid supplies.
Impressed by the visible language of The Shining by Stanley Kubrick, the track explores the connection between architectural geometry and natural fluidity. The concrete chair, with its outlined traces, contrasts with the resin base, which creates the phantasm of motion and dissolution. The mission, introduced at Milano 2025 design weekLook at everlasting and impermanence matters, the inflexible materials representing stability whereas the resin suggests the transformation.

Philipp ADUATZ experiments with sculptural chair supplies
The manufacturing course of entails 3D printing of the concrete chair, adopted by the location on a motherboard composed of wooden fibers and glass for structural reinforcement. Designer Philipp ADUATZ incorporates the chair in a mildew, the place the epoxy resin is forged to gather the construction. As soon as healed, the floor is polished and polished to acquire a excessive gloss end, which improves each visible and tactile qualities.
The diving chair will probably be exhibited on the Iola design gallery in the course of the Milan Design Week, on April 7-13, 2025, at Primary Village, by means of Dell’APRICA 12, Milan.
