Domus Dela

Eindhoven, the Netherlands

XYZ Crate Chairs, installed in the empty Domus Dela. Designed in collaboration with Structural Aspect, with wood sourced from shipping crates used in Volta's energy production.

The panels are lacquered for an eggshell finish. The stencilled letters originally marked on the crates are still readable across the seats and backrests, placed at random depending on where each panel was cut from, so the marks vary from chair to chair.

Each chair has a hand opening cut into the backrest, so it can be picked up and moved with one hand.
