10. S Bend Chair

Sherif Awad / Spring 2018

The S Bend Chair, which can be folded, was designed by Eileen Gray for Tempe a Pailla. It is shown on the exterior terrace of the house. The chair’s main structural frames are made out of slotted wood that is painted cream, with metal bracing on each side. Two versions of the S Bend chair were designed, with different open slots in the frame as well as with options for the suspended cushion in the middle.
