Nendo’s ‘transparent-chair’ was exhibited at their solo exhibition ‘textured transparencies’ at Galleria Jannone, Milan.

nendo have transformed an otherwise tacky everyday use material into a piece of transparent art. The floating feeling experienced by the sitter is the essence of this chair. The last but not least addition to the ‘textured transparencies’ collection.

A chair made with polyurethane film, a transparent film commonly used as a packing material for precision instruments and products susceptible to vibrations and shock, thanks to its high elasticity and ability to return to its original state. Looking at the chair, it seems to consist of nothing but a backrest and armrests. It wraps and supports the body like a hammock, providing a light, floating feeling for the sitter.
