{Floored by this floor (*commence eye roll*). Happy Friday!}Curved wooden benches and stools “grow” from a gridded floor of dyed timber installed in the sculpture gallery at English stately home Chatsworth House. London studio Raw Edges was commissioned to created an installation inside the 19th-century sculpture gallery, as part of an exhibition of seat furniture named Make Yourself Comfortable at Chatsworth. Rather than designing a single piece of furniture, studio founders Yael Mer and Shay Alkalay chose to transform the space with an installation that extends across the full room. The designers used pieces of dye-soaked timber to created a patterned floor for the 300-square-metre space, with benches and stools emerging from more densely coloured areas. A coloured pathway winds through the space of the gallery, leading from one bench to another. Each seat is carefully positioned to allow the sitter to view particular marble sculptures.The idea for the path evolved from an earlier plan to create a maze-like layout around the sculptures. -- source link
