What material is the Frank Gehry Wiggle chair?

1 Answer
What material is the Frank Gehry Wiggle chair?
The material used in Frank Gehry's Wiggle chair is the type of corrugated cardboard that is typically reserved for making architectural models. The piece comes from Gehry's Easy Edges collection of paper furniture. Gehry was inspired to produce the Wiggle chair and the rest of his Easy Edges pieces because he believed that the seating options available to consumers when the chair debuted in 1972 were too expensive.
