Sitting Outside the Rules: Chair Design

Pera Kids
Ages 7-12

  • August 3, 2024 / 13:30

Will the future houses continue to be influenced by the Bauhaus design school that we are used to seeing in modern homes today? In the workshop inspired by the exhibition PƎR Reverse, the children learn about designs at different scales based on the understanding of interiors developed at the Bauhaus and share their experiences about the chairs they often use. After producing 1:1 scale drawings of different forms of seating, each child designs their dream chair for the future home by using simple geometric shapes prepared in advance. At the end of the workshop, each participant presents their design and diplays their chair.

Instructor: İpek Kay
Capacity: 12 people
Duration: 90 minutes
Fee per workshop: 250 TL

The event will take place in the Pera Museum (face-to-face).

José Sancho does not conceal the voluptuousness of his female torsos; he highlights it. These torsos are symmetrical from front, but on the other hand, from the side, the juxtaposition of concave and convex forms creates dynamism.
