Wiggle Chair by Frank Gehry

Wiggle Chair
Designed by Frank Gehry

The Wiggle chair by Frank Gehry remains to this day one of our most beloved design chairs. This cardboard chair is remarkably sturdy and could last a life time (or longer). The Wiggle chair is a single fluid shape ingeniously sculpted into a stunning piece of furniture. In the early 1970's, nearing the end of the oil crisis, a trend developed for less expensive and lightweight materials. This led Frank Gehry to experiment with cardboard furniture. Designer and architect Frank Gehry developed the cardboard furniture line which he named "Easy Edges". Frank Gehry used multiple layers of corrugated cardboard glued together to make it strong enough to be practical. The Wiggle Chair is designed using this innovative material.
