Design and Innovation on Display at Stockholm Design Week 2025
Massproductions and Zeekr are teaming up to present a highlight from the exhibition Sculptures from the Factory in central Stockholm during Stockholm Design Week 2025, running from February 3rd to March 16th.
Originally shown at Sven-Harrys Konstmuseum in 2023, The Forbidden Chair is a sculptural installation that sheds light on the production process behind Massproductions’ iconic Tio Chair, designed by Chris Martin in 2009. The exhibition both informs and entertains and can be seen from February 3rd to March 16th in the Zeekr showroom, Gallerian, Hamngatan.
Massproductions was founded with the “Tio Chair” in 2009. “Tio” is Swedish for “ten” and the name refers to the fact that the chair is made of 10 mm gauge steel wire that measures over 10 meters (14.378 to be precise). The steel wire is shaped by a computer-controlled bending machine and then undergoes various surface treatments, and welded together. The finished chair is made with zero waste.
