CYBORG LADY ARMCHAIR
CYBORG LADY ARMCHAIR
Designed By Marcel Wanders studio, 2012
The design of the Cyborg armchair is based on an industrial part consisting of the four very simple plastic legs, almost basic, deliberately “non-designed” and on an artisanal “designed” part, the backrest, which can be made of wicker, polycarbonate, solid wood or upholstered with covers in fine fabrics or in leather.
And tomorrow it could be made of other materials. It is precisely the backrest that dictates the chair’s expressive and aesthetic quality. Therefore, a never-ending design story

DESIGN
In 1960 the scientist, inventor and musician Manfred Clynes coined the term cyborg, which then grew ever more popular thanks to innumerable sci-fi novels and films; it designates an organism that combines natural and artificial elements.
Marcel Wan ders Studio interprets this fusion as the expression of a continuous search for new combinations, in today’s world, where it seems there is nothing truly new left to invent. This is the background to the creation of Cyborg, a seat with a highly resistant and versatile polycarbonate shell.
The seat can then be completed with backrests in a selection of different natural or synthetic materials: from polycarbonate to wicker, from solid wood to the upholstered versions with fabric or leather cover. This further evolution of the chair is in equal parts poetic and technological, cosy and surprising, in keeping with the widest range of different settings.
WARNING
Treat stains immediately, the longer they remain in the fabric, the harder it is to remove them. Before choosing a cleaning method, always try it out on a concealed part of the chair. Do not use different cleaning products from the ones mentioned above. Do not use the product in an improper way. Do not place hot objects on it, sit on the back and/or on the arms, stand on it or use the product as a ladder. Once disused, please make sure that this product is disposed in an environment-friendly way
