Tom Price PP Tube Chair

Interior Designer Tom Price - The PP Tube Chair

I’m Melting…I’m Melting

 No, it’s not a pile left over from the Wicked Witch of the West, but rather a stack of HVAC or plumbing tubes melted together. Art project gone bad? Hardly. This whimsical seat called the Meltdown Chair by Tom Price is created by melting and fusing the tubes together to form seat with a pattern of irregular holes. The kinetic appearance is part of a series called the PP Tube Chairs in which the melted pattern forms various models.

Tom Price is an artist and interior designer from London that looks at furniture design as part function, part sculpture. Throughout his repertoire finds unusual materials such as fleece, rope, plastics, straw, PVC, as well as more American Walnut. While having a flair for the odd (check out Bug on his website) , Price also finds time to create functional works as well.

    It is chairs, this time! We take a look at some of the most creatively recycled chairs out there. There is no argument that some of these may not be the most comfortable ones to sit on, but there is also no denying the genius of their designers in thinking of new ways to add function to these objects.

    We have been intrigued with the concept of Tom Price’s Meltdown Chair series ever since we saw one last fall and then again at IMM Cologne. We took a look at the video on his website that shows him creating the Blue Rope Meltdown Chair and realized we could not wait any longer:
