Like children playing with paper by simply cutting and folding it, the ’peacock’ chair designed by canadian firm uufie is constructed from a single sheet of acrylic composite material. Taking
its namesake from the feathered animal, whose billowing tail opens into
an expanse of pattern and color, the recliner’s back rest fans open in
the same way, propelling in a sweeping curve. a delicate, lace-like
motif spreads throughout the framework, yet the design is only optically
fragile as its material is made structurally strong through the
thermoforming process. The woven-like arrangement casts dramatic shadows
onto the surface of the floor. The seating unit is available in three
versions, a limited edition in large and smaller sizes, in both color
and white. uufie is presenting the variations of ‘peacock’ at design miami/ as part of galleria rossana orlandi collection, and is also currently on exhibit at spazio rossana orlandi,
