With neat frugality, the remaining pieces of the aluminium sheet form the legs of the stool
A stand out among the designs chosen by TENT Selects at this year's TENT London is Harry Thaler's nicely lo-fi Pressed Chair. Freshly graduated from the Royal College or Art, the chair was part of Thaler's Final Show. Pressing structural elements into an aluminium sheet, Thaler creates a single shape that can be bent into a simple stacking chair. It's strong, despite being so light you can lift it with only a couple of fingers. With neat frugality, the remaining pieces of the aluminium sheet form three legs. Screw them together and you have the accompanying stool.
Harry Thaler trained as a goldsmith before completing his Masters in design at the RCA. He now divides his time between London and Italy.
