VEER: Rice Husk Bio-Composite Chair

VEER investigates an innovative new biocomposite material examining its formal and manufacturing limitations. The material research informed the design and production of a prototype chair, VEER.The biocomposite under investigation is comprised of two constituent materials, the first from the fourth material kingdom1: plastics. Most plastics in use today are synthetic, meaning they originate from a non-renewable substance. Celebrated for an incredible range of material properties, formal freedom, durability, and low cost, plastics have become ubiquitous over the last century. Omnipresent, the perception around plastic materials has also shifted, now synonymous with ‘cheap’ or ‘disposable’.
