Visually, this chair by Kedar Naik seems like the perfect way to relax after a long day’s work. Its winding graceful lines seem to impose no constraints on the user’s body save its own natural form. That being said, the Glide chair’s only cited materials are aluminum and lacquered fiberglass, neither of which strike me as particularly comfortable. Perhaps this is a piece best put artfully in a corner and pointed to whenever one has guests.
Designer: Kedar Naik

the tempered aluminum base gives it the spring and the fiberglass upper is funmently no different than plywood, just toss on a nice bit of padding and your good to go..
Hmm im thinking will it bend out of shape or snap?
naw, 1/4 to 1/2 thick temperd alumium will do the trick and a bit of carbon fiber or nomex honeycomb in the upper keeps it stiff.
Even 1/2 inch thick Al would be pushing it. Maybe 3/4 stainle$$.
have to run the numbers, could do a nice bit of composite though allow where you see it carbon where you don’t.
looking amazing !!
Great design. Very flowing and beautiful.
This is definitely gorgeous. If the leg part were just a few inches longer, I could se sitting on it both ways. Excellent.
wow! i’ll take two. kinda reminds me of a bird.
Cool; looks a bit unstable but nice shape anyway…
