Sh: 45 cm. Materials: beech plywood and powder-coated steel. Ka237 classic designed in 1966 by aleksander kuczma industrially produced for the first time since 2022 designed for the central furniture development centre in poznan, this piece of furniture never got beyond the prototype stage. The only complete version of ka237 is held by the national museum in warsaw. It can be found at the permanent exhibition entitled ‚gallery of polish design’. The chair has a seat made of polyester-glass laminate and a characteristic frame made of conical metal tubes. The chair is a manifestation of the pioneering attempts of the polish furniture industry to construct a chair out of plastic. The idea was to obtain a seat that would encourage people to adopt a correct sitting position. Many prototypes were created, and ultimately one was chosen. The corresponding shell passed strength tests, far exceeding the norms for this type of furniture. The iconic character of vzor products can be proved by several facts. The fact that they are in museums is a fact. Presence in films from the era of the creation of the projects is next. The third fact is that few people who asked about the creation of the design concept of vzor products could confidently predict the year of design in the 1950s or 1960s without knowing their history. These are forms that do not age and can confidently compete with the best world design. They didn’t stand a chance in the years they were designed. The vzor brand gives them this chance now. See less
