About the Item

The Goo Lounge Chair by Janne Schimmel, Dutch designer, and Moreno Schweikle, German designer presents a baroque vision of furniture design, fusing the wild fluidity of digital ornament with the rugged tactility of wood-based 3D printing. Using a hybrid fabrication process, the designers sculpted flowing structural forms that resemble vines or roots, intertwined with ornate yet load-bearing details. The chair’s surfaces alternate between rough, organic textures and smooth, highly controlled curves - manifesting an eerie resemblance to natural growth while remaining fundamentally artificial. Unveiled during A Tree Full of Splinters at Everyday Gallery in Antwerp, the Goo Lounge Chair exemplifies Schimmel & Schweikle’s exploration into how simulated and crafted aesthetics coalesce. In this work, decorative detail gains structural relevance, collapsing the hierarchy between ornament and function and highlighting how digital toolkits can infuse new life into woodworking traditions

Blown-Up Chair by Schimmel & Schweikle, Netherlands, 2022
By Janne Schimmel
Located in Antwerp, BE
Blown-up chair by Schimmel & Schweikle, crafted from recycled plastic durable hard PU coating with brown peel structure. Schimmel & Schweikle is an ongoing collaboration between Janne Schimmel and Moreno Schweikle. Their work revolves around the nexus of technology, art, and culture. In that realm, Schimmel & Schweikle focus on developing concepts that deal with the closing gap of the digital and physical realm. For their graduation project "Return to Default" in 2018, Moreno Schweikle and Janne Schimmel digitally manipulated the DNA of three standard office chairs, creating faintly familiar mutants. The ordinary desk chair became a three-seater sofa, and twelve office stools melted into a majestic lounge chair. This particular conference chair was blown up into an overstuffed version, showcasing the importance of recycling shapes in design. The off-size frame was 3D-printed, traditionally upholstered, and reintroduced into the office space. We currently have a selection of these armchairs in stock...
