Raw energy: The changing shape of furniture

Bjarke Frederiksen says his Nordic Nomad Chair, which can be quickly assembled into a backpack, a sack, a blanket or a space for belongings, is a ‘changeable shape with adaptable functions’. Frederik Alexander Werner wound carpet around a wooden frame to create his Carpet Lounge Chair.

These designs are a great example of the temporary structures and mobile furniture seen in the Nomadic Vendors section of our Survivability macro Inspire.
