Top spot went to Katie Lee’s spot-on blend of ingenuity and style

Last fall Core77 got the chance to participate in the jurying of a chair design competition sponsored by Wilsonart and held at the University of Oregon’s Product Design Department. It was a semester long assignment for the students and challenged them to use Wilsonart’s laminates to produce a NW cafe inspired chair. This coming week the results of that competition are going on display in NYC at the ICFF and we encourage you to stop by and see the winners yourself; the high level of thinking and polish applied by the class is well represented by the champion chairs. Here is a teaser of the work, continued from above…
