Roll Chair from Mike Boylan
Roll Chair

Original Concept - 2012 - Entry for the Battery Park Chair Design Competition

The Roll Chair is a simple, modern, playful, stacking chair that will provide an iconic, recognizable signature alternative to the inexpensive folding café chairs ubiquitous to New York’s public spaces.

The Roll Chair is designed for stackability. Once they are stacked, the chairs can be locked together by running a cable through the holes in the base.

The Roll Chair is designed to be made from Water-Jet or Laser cut sheet steel. All three panels will start as flat sheets and be cut into shape prior to forming. All of the pieces will be rolled and bent into their final forms using standard metal forming tools.
