Balustrade Chair

Balustrade

Balustrade is a chair designed for short and temporary rest. The design is inspired by unconscious behaviour, such as leaning on a table or against a balustrade. Balustrade offers two sitting positions. The first is sitting directly on the top, like a chair. The second is a leaning posture, like leaning on a railing. The form is simple, and the intent is brief use rather than long comfort. Several units can be overlapped to reduce transport volume. The chair measures 620 by 385 by 720 millimetres.

Balustrade Chair by Zhejiang Sci-Tech University was highlighted as an innovative representation of industrial design by the A' Design Award. Balustrade Chair received the Silver A' Design Award in Furniture Design in 2021. The A' Furniture Design Award is a highly prestigious, international, juried design prize which rewards excellent design of chairs, tables, sofas, beds, cabinets, shelves, desks, wardrobes and more.
