The Verge.com reports on the
San Francisco-based designer
Robby Cuthbert, who creates
architectural furniture made
from wood and steel cables.
The rows of cables in his chairs,
lamps, and tables are precisely
placed to maintain stability
and strength through tension
alone, similar to a suspension
bridge.
None of the pieces use
adhesives or fasteners to stay
intact for a furniture-meets-
sculpture effect. Cuthbert
explains on his website that
laser cutters and 3D printers
are key to his work.
