I was looking for artists, designers or pieces of work that partly or mostly destructed a piece of furniture to create a new form of design and try to take some inspirational ideas to add to my own work.
I found a bench that had been covered but pencil tops and liked the idea that by attaching the pencils meant having to drill into the bench which would damage the bench but then create a new platform to be used instead.
The bench was designed by a company called "Boex" who design a range of new and innovative 3D design. The bench in question is made from 1625 which are individually sprung to fit the user as the sit, plus each pencil can be taken out and used.
I would like to try and recreate this but using something a little darker in aesthetics to fit with my dark look with my other chairs. With this in mind i have started looking into dark/ evil themes, characters and other such media. I then remembered pinhead from the film "hell raiser" whose head is covered in large nail/pins
With this in mind i think it would suit my chair destruct/ construct and theme if i used nails which would give the dark feel and are cheap and easily available.
