Ming's Heart Armchair

Ming's Heart Armchair

DESIGNED BY Shi-Chieh Lu
FOR Poltrona Frau

East and West. The Ming’s Heart project goes straight to the core of two worlds, two visions, two philosophies of life and living. 

This contest aims to encourage the cultural exchange between East and West, between the values underlying the idea of design in Taiwan and Poltrona Frau identity. 

The historic Ming chair is the reference model for this piece by Shi-Chieh Lu. The purity of its lines, the perfect expression of Chinese and Oriental spirituality, reverberates in the geometric and cubic formality of the Western vision.

INFO

Shi-Chieh Lu pares down surfaces until he achieves a continuous line. Armrests, seat and back become the lightest of fluid, graphic shapes.
