> Onepiece Chair - 100% Design winners



Blueprint magazine and Claystation have announced the results of the Onepiece chair design competition from 100% Design London.  The Blueprint/Claystation stand brought the design process to life as visitors sat on specially commissioned chairs to create their entries - we were delighted to have been asked to create a design (you can see our "Tree of Life" chair, above) alongside the likes of Margo Selby, Jonathan Ball, Steve Wilson and Martin Wollerstam amongst others. The Onepiece chair was designed by Ben Hughes, founder of Claystation and course director of the MA in industrial design at Central St. Martins. The chair is designed to be made from a single piece of material without the use of any adhesive or fixative, and made from an innovative material Swedish material called Re-board, which is as light as cardboard but as strong as MDF.

The winners were Shauna Murphy for her 'in-situ' chair and the under 16 category was won by 10 year old Miles Dodd.  Congratulations to you both.
