Nagami presents avant-garde 3D printed chairs

The Milan Furniture Fair will be held from 17 to 22 April and will be an opportunity to see some pretty original 3D printed chairs. They will be presented by the Spanish design firm Nagami, which specialises in large scale 3D printing, in collaboration with several renowned designers and studios including Zaha Hadid Architects. The chairs will be part of the project entitled “Brave new world: redesigned design and large-scale robotic 3D printing”.

Nagami will present his project soon in Milan. It includes four models of very avant-garde chairs named Rise and Low – both by Zaha Hadid Architects, Robotica TM by Ross Lovegrove and Peeler by Daniel Widrig. They would all be printed in 3D.

3D printed chairs for Milan Furniture Fair

The two chairs Rise and Bow have been printed via a robotic arm capable of extruding biodegradable plastic pellets. Their respective designs are both optimised to fulfil their primary function – sitting – and recall a natural floral structure while incorporating colours and shapes in an innovative way. In other words, it’s a little more than just chairs!
