Creative Contrast

This is an awesome chair is aptly named the "Grid Chair" by designer Jaebom Jeong. I thought this is a great example of contrast of two different elements that make up the chair frame and the seat. You can distinguish two very different elements here, which compose the parts of the chair that creates this cool contrast of thick and thin, detailed and simple, heavy/sturdy and light, transparent and opaque. The wiry chair frame is made out of stainless steel while the seat is made of Walnut (wood I presume). While this piece of work may appear flimsy and light (from perceived transparency of its frame), it is actually quite the opposite and is fully functional. When you look at it, you might want to double take and look again at this graphic inspired creation that looks like a prototype draft illustration conjured up in a computer screen but the chair is actually a real physical object. Form definitely follows function in this piece, but with style and unique sense of creativity thanks to brilliant use of contrast in design.
