Marcel Wanders' Knotted chair was created for the Dutch design group Droog's Dry Tech I exhibition at the Salone de Mobile exhibition, in 1996. The chair, which brought Wanders international attention and was soon acquired by the Museum of Modern Art, New York, is an exploration of Droog's exploration of high-low production techniques is made via macrame, a knotting technique commonly used to made lace-like textiles. Here Wanders advanced the traditional technique by impregnating the cotton with epoxy resin to make it rigid and thereby functional. Capellini worked with Wanders to create a limited edition series of the chair in red and gold.
