Suspended Expression: Shiro Kuramata's 'Miss Blanche' Chair
Experimenting with acrylic's transparent ‘non-existent’ quality, often combined with industrial materials such as aluminium, Kuramata created objects imbued with feeling and memory, which carried a meaning beyond their practical function. Reflecting Kuramata’s poetic approach to design and affinity for experimenting with new materials and innovative technologies, Madalena Horta E Costa, Head of Sale for Design, shares how this chair is a sensitive exploration of light, color and form, considered within the surrounding space. Describing the chair, Kuramata explained, "This chair has no details. Or rather, please think of the whole chair as a detail."
