Books Beneath the Seat
Boghylde invites visitors to sit with its braceless cantilevered form, while curated texts beneath the seat encourage reflection and deeper engagement with surrounding artworks. Its precise tilt offers just enough ease to immerse viewers in what they see, without so much comfort that attention drifts away.
Sculptural in Presence
Cantilever Chair that blends sculpture and function, light yet bold enough for a gallery
Purposeful in Use
Underseat offers space for curated texts and readings tied to the exhibition.
Process
Cantilevered form is supported by a manually milled steel frame with press-fitted joints. 3D-printed jigs guided complex cuts and drilling.
