Abstract | The chair: we sit on one every day in our homes, schools or offices. Yet how often do we think about the origins of the chair and its place in the world? After all, the human body is more suited to sitting on the ground than on a chair, and some chairs even cause back problems. Yet the chair is arguably an object that marks our place in the modern world: it holds our bodies above the floor and in a seated position, sending signals about the sitter and even the designer. |
