Spy 2019 From THONET 200 Project Wood, glue, stain, electrical fixture, bulb and cord, 53 × 59 × 53 cm (21 x 23 x 21 in.). Unique.
With his design for Thonet Re-Imagined, Tobias Rehberger takes up the characteristic features of the Coffee House Chair no. 14 in order to transfer them in exaggerated form to the design of a lamp. In this way, he transforms the elegant curves of the backrest into a freely formed loop of bentwood, which in reality was not bent but assembled from many CNC-milled individual parts. Behind the supposedly playful manual work lies a highly technological production method that has nothing to do anymore with traditional bentwood processing.
