‘Tjuta Chairs’ Commission
For Project Anon
An adaption of the Tor bench, these chairs were reimagined in the Australian context.
The ‘Tjuta’ chairs pay homage to Kata Tjuta national Park (The Olgas) located 360km southwest of Alice Springs in Australia.
The design can separate into two ‘forms’ as above, or seat together as a bench.
