Material features:
The chairs are made of broken stone and recycled pallet wood from a construction site, and then coated with natural mineral varnish from Germany.
Marble and other stones that are commonly found at construction sites and could not be used due to breakage were collected as the material for the backs of the chairs. The pieces of stone were cut, color matched, glued, and polished for safety; breakages were specially preserved to convey the image of construction sites.
The timber for the structure of the chair itself comes from the L-shaped pallets that were used to transport large sheets of stone, echoing the stone that forms the back of the chair and reproducing the close relationship between the stone and the pallet in the construction process.
The rust-dyed pillows were made by artists who used construction site waste as tools; after the surface of the waste materials rusted, the rust was rubbed onto the fabric to create a rustic pattern.
