Description
The working principle of a rocking-chair has not changed for years. The challenge was to make a new kind of rocking or swinging chair through using steel cable instead of a bended chassis/ frame.
The swinging movement is realised by attaching of the seat at one place, only at the front. The

 

elasticity of the steel cable make it possible to swing and give a kind of springy effect.
