Aus der limitierten Edition von 20 Exemplaren in unterschiedlicher Materialausführung.

„This chair is as straightforward as its name: one box, four sections, three hinges, four movements. The hinges are set on a torsion bar that provides a springy, surprisingly bouncy action; it can be adjusted with an electric screwdriver that comes with the chair, and sits an casters that lock automatically when the chair is in use. Here Arad once again plays with the contrast between material and comfort – although the feeling of comfort is somewhat limited.“
(Ron Arad: No Discipline, Kat., Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris, The MOMA, New York, 2008/2009, p. 80 )

Provenienz:
Privatsammlung, Großbritannien "Probably our favorite piece. It's easy to read as a versatile object - you can easily imagine different configurations, but the suppleness provided by the torsion springs is a surprise you enjoy only when you attempt to sit on it." (Ron Arad)
