Chainmail Chair is a new take on William Katavolos 1952’s T-chair. Its seat is made up of hand-linked metal rings coming together to form a strong and flexible mesh that drapes down its T structure. For Chainmail Chair I sought to create a design that supported a body that is open to different forms of expression; to pain, to pleasure, to pleasure in pain, a body concentrated on its primal instincts. With Chainmail Chair I ultimately seek to express and question our wish for constraint.

Maika palazuelos (designer and director) started panorammma during confinement with the intention of creating a permeable and open platform for design exploration. With an artistic background, maika initially conceived panorammma as an extension of her personal practice. Identifying in expressive domestic objects a possibility for them to compete with and extend our everyday narrative by inserting themselves into it. In a sense, they become trojan horses for artistic discourse by disrupting and reframing the mundane; opening up the possibility of altered states of life.
