Atypical Chair is a unique collection of chairs designed by Ecuadorian-born Marco Segovia. The series was inspired by a simple but profound reflection: what can you create with only what others throw away? The result is a design of original seats that could successfully stand in a contemporary art museum.
Marco Segovia is a well-known digital artist in Ecuador who uses advanced tools to combine digital surrealism with minimalism. His work adds a new dimension to everyday objects, revealing hidden value and poetic language.
Using materials such as bottle crates, old tyres or building blocks, the project transforms waste into functional, artistic pieces that go beyond the traditional understanding of furniture.
The Atypical Chair project is not only an example of creativity, but also a manifesto of perseverance and innovative thinking, characteristic of the streets of Latin American cities. Each chair tells a story of transformation – from seemingly worthless objects, unique furniture is created that combines aesthetics with practicality, proving that beauty is born out of need, not excess.
The Atypical Chair collection perfectly blends tradition and modernity, demonstrating that sustainability and creativity go hand in hand. It is an inspiring example of how limitations and materials that most consider useless can become the foundation for innovative design, offering a new perspective on beauty and functionality.
