The iconic CH33 chair by Hans J. Wegner is reinvented by the A-team of Australian and New Zealand artistic and design talent for a one-week-only online charity auction. Fourteen designers from across the a number of creative fields fashion, furniture and object to architecture have been hand-picked by Cult to put their own distinctive stamps on this design classic.
The reinventions traverse the fine line between respecting an aesthetically perfect classic timber chair and embellishing it with the mark of their own hands. We see some upholstered creations in Bassike, Coco Flip and Romance was Born; some function attachments in Hecker Guthrie and Toko; colour and painting feature in Dinosaur Designs and Ken Done’s creations; and a couple of designers, Babidge and Hearfield and Megan Morton, have done away with their chairs altogether, creating a framed piece of artwork and an impression of the chair.
