mt1 armchair
Design Ron Arad, 2004
Rotational molded polyethylene monobloc
Made in Italy by Driade
"MT", or the initials that calls these pieces designed by Ron Arad, are pronounced as "empty" meaning "empty" and the gap is really the key element of this project. The volume, made through a rotational molding process, is in fact carved and the insides, finished in different colors. The MT collection is also available as a rocking chair.
Hailed as one of the foremost designers of the 20th Century, Ron Arad was born in Tel Aviv and studied at the Jerusalem Academy of Art before moving to London to enroll in the Architectural Association where he studied under Peter Cook, founder of Archigram. Ron Arad has successfully established a unique design style using unorthodox combinations of materials and concepts.
MT1 armchair is produced from a polyethylene monobloc with a sand white (RAL 1013) exterior with a choice of red, lilac, black or violet colored interior. Suitable for indoor/outdoor use. Please call the hive showroom with any questions: 1-866-663-4483.

Ron Arad
In 1981 Ron scoured a scrapyard and combined a car seat with structural tubing to create the postmodern Rover Chair, whose popularity significantly launched his career. Ron Arad’s unique design style would continue to use unorthodox combinations of materials and concepts.
Driade has the rigor of geometric rational design as well as pop art and radical design. Driade is happy to continue the rich heritage of Good Design into the 21st century with works by accomplished designers.
