Meltdown Cable Tie Chair

Claire Sullivan - Wednesday, November 11, 2009

  

Constructed  from 10,000 black nylon cable ties, designer Tom Price jumbles and weaves together the ties then heats the surface and presses a set-shaped form into the ball. The ties liquify as they come into contact with the heated form, the shape of the seat is set as it cools creating a contrasting texture to the remaining ties.
