Space saving origami chair; ideal for offices.


Origami art when viewed for the first time is breathtaking. It will be amusing to watch big items getting unfolded from several folds. Someone genius thought why not apply the same concept in producing chairs! When he put his thought into action, this is what he got (see the image alongside).

He calls it as Flux chair. He demonstrated the space saving feature of his invention by stacking as many as 21 chairs one upon another! The whole lot in folded position was just one foot in height!

In addition, he says a single chair can take up to 350 pounds of weight! The actual weight of this origami chair is only 10.60 pounds and it is made of polypropylene.

Extraordinary visualization and conceptualization.

Watch a video demonstration of Origami chair in action.
