Inside the Triennale, Basf revealed the process for making Konstantin Grcic's new cantilevered chair, MYTO. The chair is innovative in that it is made entirely of BASF engineering plastic Ultradur High Speed (chemically speaking, PBT: polybutylene terephthalate) till now only used in the car industry.
Actual prototypes were on view -- black cardboard mock-up included! (see top right)
More pics after the jump.

I just studied Grcic and did a presentation on him in my History of Products class. This is cool to see more of his process for the MYTO chair. Thanks!
