Hexagon

Hexagon Chair

For Fenhann’s Hexagon chair, designed for the Cabinetmakers Autumn Exhibition 2012 at
Thorvaldsens Museum in Copenhagen, was inspired by the geometric patterns of the floors at the museum. Drawing on ancient Greek mathematic formulas, the designer applied the exact section
of one of Archimedes’s basic mathematical shapes, the truncated octahedron, for  shell of the chair.

‍

The project was supported by the Danish Art Foundation and the fabric was sponsored by Danish Art Weaving.
