If I Were a Carpenter | Ron Arad X ALPI
Working in tandem with the ALPI research department, Arad stripped bare three of his most iconic pieces in order to bring their essence to the fore in the shape of wood.The three structures model the volumes into a three-dimensional play of shapes and colours.
Based on the chairs Big Easy, Oh Void and Southern Hemisphere, the three new objects are now the stars of the show at "If I were a Carpenter". For this occasion, ALPI has produced bespoke types of wood that accentuate the optical effect of the shapes designed by Arad.
Boards of ALPI faced with two different colours give the pieces a changeable appearance, the hues and perception of which differ in accordance with the viewing point of the observer.
