He studied product development at the Henry Vandevelde Institute at the Academy of Antwerp in Belgium and industrial design at the University of Technology in Delft. Ligthart designed locomotives for the Dutch railway and later, as a freelance designer, furniture. Since 2001, he has worked for companies such as Brown Jordan, Grange, Garpa and Lambert. For his outstanding work, Ligthart was awarded several prestigious design awards, such as Design Plus Award in 2003, Red Dot Design Award in 2006 and BIDA Award for outstanding design in 2006.

Dedon "Obelisk" Stacking Garden Furniture Group

By Frank Ligthart, DEDON

Located in Hanover, MA

The Obelisk designed by Frank Ligthart for Dedon, 2008. No longer in production. Inspired by the Neolithic menhirs of Carnac in the French region of Brittany it is composed of two pairs of matching high- and low-back lounge chairs and a conical table. The base of the table supports all the chairs when stacked into its sculptural shape for storage. This listing is for one complete Obelisk PLUS a partial set of four chairs and table. Half the fun of owning the obelisk is actually having the obelisk tower on display. Once it is taken down to be used for seating then the giant sculpture is gone. Here we offer you the best of both worlds: a seating group of four chairs as well as the stacked Obelisk sculpture, which you won't need to disassemble until you are completely overrun with guests! The complete Obelisk cosists of two S-chairs, two M-chairs and the cone table. The near-complete additional Obelisk consists of three of the S-chairs and one M-chair plus the table. Price shown is for the complete Obelisk plus the extras. Both sets have brand new cushions. NO FURTHER DISCOUNTS. Image 8 shows the "spare" set which includes 3 "S" chairs (instead of 2) and 1 "M" chair (instead of 2) and one table base. The spare set will not stack to form the obelisk because that requires two of each chair. This is the ultra-chic original space-saving solution for garden, pool or terrace furniture...
