Driade MT3 Rocking Armchair By Ron Arad

Driade MT3 Rocking Armchair by Ron Arad

MT, the acronym defining this collection designed by Ron Arad, in English is pronounced empty that means vacuum and emptiness is really the key element of this project. The volume is hollowed and presents provocatively its interior, finished in two colours. This is possible thanks to a double step in the rotational moulding. First of all the polyethylene of the outer shell colour is placed in the mould. once formed this layer, the second colour is inserted and adhere to the first without merging the two polymers, even though this process takes place in blast furnaces. Once extracted from the mould, a five-axis laser will cut off the lateral ends of the product, revealing the two-tone side of the MT. From the typological point of view is also reported the presence of a rocking chair, a rarity in the contemporary world.
