Interesting folding furniture  

Folding chair

Giancarlo Piretti "Plana"...
Giancarlo Piretti "Plana" table has always been one of my favorite "folding" designs

I'm not sure if I understand that 'Plana' table...
It appears that two of the top quarters fold, leaving a half-circle. Yet, the resulting 'demi lune' table couldn't be pushed up against a wall because of the metal four-star base.
Perhaps ALL of the quarters fold-- but, if so, I STILL don't get it. What's gained by the folding function of this design?
I must be missing something (?).
(I just had a Helen Keller epiphany-- does the base fold, as well?)

I saw a video of a awesome chair about 2 years ago now its a cardboard chair and it starts of as a block but then he throws it out to like a bench and bends it to all different shapes, does anyone else know what im on about or am i just going mad 😀

You must be thinking of "Flexible Love".
Like many contemporary designs-- lots of flash, very little function. It does SO much, and yet... so little.

i own one of these, it's actually quite handy despite its weight. it has adjustable feet and even small wheels so you can roll it around when it's folded.

Nils Frederking is...
certainly one of the kings of folding. It's a lovely table. I hope it is on the market, made by a one of those fine scandinavian furniture makers.

So nice.
The table and the chair are both lovely and clever.
I wish I could see that other table (rear left) fold, too ! But then, I'm never satisfied. . .
