Wettbewerbsaufgabe
Wir stellen die Architect's Chair Competition vor, eine spannende Gelegenheit für Architekten und Designer, ihre Vielseitigkeit und Kreativität durch den Entwurf eines charakteristischen Möbelstücks unter Beweis zu stellen. Inspiriert von der langjährigen Tradition berühmter Architekten, maßgeschneiderte Möbel als Erweiterung ihrer architektonischen Arbeit zu entwerfen, fordert dieser Wettbewerb die Teilnehmer auf, ihren Designansatz auf seine Kernkomponenten zu reduzieren und ihren einzigartigen Stil in einem einzigen Möbelstück zu repräsentieren - dem Architektenstuhl.
Im Laufe der Geschichte haben berühmte Architekten wie Charles und Ray Eames, Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, Marcel Breuer und Arne Jacobsen erfolgreich ikonische Stühle entworfen, die ihre jeweilige Designphilosophie verkörpern. Die Architect's Chair Competition soll diese Tradition fortsetzen, indem er Architekten und Designer dazu auffordert, neue Materialien, Konstruktionstechniken und ergonomische Lösungen im Rahmen eines Stuhldesigns zu erforschen und letztendlich ein funktionelles und ästhetisch ansprechendes Möbelstück zu schaffen.
Als erster Teil einer neuen Reihe von Wettbewerben, die sich auf individuelles Möbeldesign konzentrieren, ermutigt der Architect's Chair Wettbewerb die Teilnehmer, über die Grenzen der Architektur hinaus zu denken und in den Bereich des Produktdesigns einzutauchen. Durch die Gestaltung eines charakteristischen Stuhls, der ihren individuellen Stil und ihre Vision widerspiegelt, können Architekten und Designer ihre Vielseitigkeit unter Beweis stellen und einen Beitrag zum ständigen Dialog zwischen Architektur und Design leisten. Nehmen Sie also Platz und lassen Sie Ihrer Kreativität beim Architect's Chair Wettbewerb freien Lauf!
Competition assignment
Introducing the Architect's Chair Competition, an exciting opportunity for architects and designers to showcase their versatility and creativity by designing a signature piece of furniture. Inspired by the long-standing tradition of iconic architects creating custom furniture as an extension of their architectural work, this competition challenges participants to distill their design approach into its core components and represent their unique style in a single piece of furniture – the architect's chair.
Throughout history, renowned architects such as Charles and Ray Eames, Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, Marcel Breuer, and Arne Jacobsen have successfully designed iconic chairs that embody their distinct design philosophies. The Architect's Chair competition seeks to continue this tradition by inviting architects and designers to explore new materials, construction techniques, and ergonomic solutions within the constraints of a chair design, ultimately producing a functional and aesthetically compelling piece of furniture.
As the first installment in a new series of competitions focused on custom furniture design, the Architect's Chair competition encourages participants to think beyond the boundaries of architecture and delve into the realm of product design. By creating a signature chair that reflects their individual style and vision, architects and designers can demonstrate their versatility and contribute to the ongoing dialogue between architecture and design. So, take a seat and let your creativity unfold in the Architect's Chair competition!
