Tube Chair

Tube chair transformation

        

In Ashley Baldwin Smith's which is famous for using recycled and found materials in her innovative designs .In the tube chair design we see a transformation from recycled materials to a new design which can be used both as sculptor and as a chair . we can not only see transformation in the materials used but also in design in my opinion Smith's Tube chair design has a very similar resemblance to Mies Van de Rohe 1927 chair 

                              

                     

We can see transformation from this classic design in the Mies Van de Roche 1927,chair where the tube is joined to make it seem like it one piece where as in the Ashley Baldwin Smith Design the recycled tubes are placed horizontally and welded together.
