Abstract:
The Suspended Pin Chair is a piece of furniture intended for seating. The chair consists of a frame, tension material (which also serves as the seating material), and a suspended pin. The frame is built out of a rigid material and forms the basis of the structure of the chair. The tension material spans between the frame and the suspended pin, supporting the suspended pin in space in a fixed position, creating the seating surfaces of the chair. The geometry of the tension material is centered on the suspended pin with branches that extend outward from the suspended pin, connecting at corresponding locations on the frame. The suspended pin is built out of a rigid material that creates the center point around which the tension material is located. The suspended pin is not attached to the frame and is supported in a fixed position in space by the seating material.
