Danish designer Mathias Bengtsson grounds his artistic process in what he calls “the promise of technology” by harnessing the latest materials and engineering to create furniture that recalls natural processes and biomorphic forms. For the prototype for Spun Chaise, Bengtsson wove—with the help of a computer—a single thread of carbon fiber to create a cylindrical, slinky-like chair that can support the weight of a human body yet only weighs five and a half pounds.
