In this movie filmed in Amsterdam, Moooi co-founder Marcel Wanders discusses the woven carbon-fibre chair he designed with Bertjan Pot, which the Dutch brand relaunched this year as a bar stool.
Moooi's Carbon Chair – based on a prototype by Pot that Wanders helped develop into an industrially produced piece of furniture – is woven from a series of carbon fibres impregnated with epoxy resin to create a strong and light structure.
The seat is produced by hand-weaving black strands of epoxy-soaked carbon fibre around a mould, which set to form a rigid structure that is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use.
"It allows a super light structure to be super strong," Wanders says in the movie, which Dezeen filmed for Moooi in Amsterdam.
"It was important for us to make a transparent seat, so we weaved it in a classical way with wires impregnated with epoxy."
