Take a Seat

Leading Australian and New Zealand creatives are invited to reinvent an iconic chair design for the second edition of Cult’s esteemed charity event, The Chairity Project. This year sees Cult partner with the Republic of Fritz Hansen to reinvent the iconic Series 7 chair and pay homage to renowned Danish designer, Arne Jacobsen. Each of the 20 creatives chosen to participate is given the opportunity to reimagine the iconic design and give it their personal mark. The 20 resulting chairs are then exhibited and auctioned off, with proceeds of each chair going to a charity of the creative’s choice.

Building on the success of last year’s inaugural Chairity Project, Cult is expanding the concept this year by increasing the line-up of creatives from a cross section of industrial design, architecture and art as well as floral and jewellery design. These include renowned talents such as Dinasour Dinosaur Designs, Akira Isogawa and David Trubridge. The diversity of creatives taking part in the project will result in a wide range of chair reinventions and a captivating exhibition.
