Arc Chair

Arc Chair

Arc Chair is an innovative seating solution that exemplifies the harmonious fusion of aesthetic elegance and functional design through its distinctive use of fluid arc forms throughout its structure. This meticulously crafted furniture piece, designed by Dheeraj Belgaonkar, features a seamlessly integrated system of curves that extends from its gracefully curved backrest to its elegantly arched armrests, creating a dynamic visual composition while ensuring ergonomic comfort. The chair's construction employs 16mm diameter CRC Mild Steel Pipe for its framework, precision-bent using multi-axis technology to achieve its characteristic curved form, while the seat, back, and armrests are crafted from 18mm birch plywood, CNC-machined for optimal precision and finished with a sophisticated dark stain. With overall dimensions of 550mm x 550mm x 730mm and a comfortable seating height of 445mm, the Arc Chair demonstrates thoughtful consideration of human anthropometrics, particularly tailored to accommodate diverse body types. The design's biomorphic inspiration, drawing from natural forms such as the lotus flower, translates into a versatile seating solution that seamlessly integrates into various environmental contexts. The chair's innovative assembly system, allowing it to be easily constructed from two main components, showcases practical engineering alongside its aesthetic achievements. This design excellence has been recognized with an Iron A' Design Award in the Furniture Design category, acknowledging its contribution to contemporary furniture design through its successful marriage of form, function, and manufacturing innovation.
