Walking-Chair Design Studio
October 7. 11:00
Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design
Auditorium
1121 Budapest, Zugligeti street 9-25.
Founded by Karl Emilio Pircher product designer from South Tyrol and Fidel Peugeot graphic designer from Switzerland Walking Chair has been fluttering the dovecots of respectable Austrian (and other) citizens since 2002. The design business they define as a multidisciplinary THINK TANK was named after a real walking chair, while their portfolio consists of further humorous, surprising, provocative and playful objects: the pieces of the Animal Collection furniture reminding their owners that furniture can grow as close to your heart as a pet, the P.E.T. Light Tree made of 198 hand shaped bottles or the Monte Bello modular mountain range and sofa system for public and private indoor spaces. „In the heart of Vienna we make things and songs” is their slogan, yet not only their studio, but also a gallery they founded in 2006 can be found in the heart Vienna, and further to that a business enterprise created as part of their brand-building called Walking-Things dealing with the distribution of their products. The expression “things and songs” refers to graphic design, exhibition installation and furniture design projects, as well as to musical performances. The Walking-Chair Design Studio is among the most noteworthy and undoubtedly the most entertaining actors of the Austrian creative industry.
