Design a chair, sofa or stool that is an expression of our time is the challenge set by US studio Luvo Design to designers and architects around the world. “The function of the chair has remained the same for centuries – write the organisers – but its design has evolved over time in terms of technology, form and production, in response to changes taking place within our society”.

The ambitious aim is therefore to create a chair that symbolises the 21st century, in the same way that the curved beech chair by Charles and Ray Eames did the 1950s or the tubular steel chair by Marcel Breuer the 1930s.
