A made-to-measure chair
Called Body Chair it has been created by Vaa.Onl, a Dutch architectural studio, and is based on cutting-edge technology that allows you to personalise the seating position and dimensions. Presented at Dubai Design Days that will run until 18 March 2016, the chair is composed of 28 unique machine-crafted components, made of anodized aluminium. The components are perforated to reduce weight while maintaining structural strength, adding lightness to the design. A broad selection of seating pads is available, to provide a comfortable customized lining. The XCOR Launch Chair is a special limited edition version of the Body Chair, developed to commemorate the spectacular journey into space the astronauts of the XCOR Space Expeditions will embark upon taking off from the HATO Airport of Curaçao.The XCOR Lynx spacecraft will transport the astronauts up to a height of 100 km from this point, and they will experience 56- minutes of weightlessness in a free fall.
