{"product_id":"blue-to-amber-graded-panel-acrylic-armchair-76cm","title":"Blue to Amber Graded Panel Acrylic Armchair - 76cm","description":"\u003ch3\u003eDescription\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFour flat panels make this armchair: a tall back, two angled sides that serve as arms, and a seat spanning between them. The acrylic carries three colours in one sheet - a strong blue across the back, purple through the middle where the seat crosses, and amber where the panels reach the floor - so the chair changes colour up its own height rather than across its width.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFour Flat Panels, Three Colours in the Sheet\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA three-colour grade is cast, and the middle colour is the one that decides whether it works. Blue running straight into amber turns muddy, so a purple band is drawn in between them and its width sets how abrupt the change reads: narrow and the chair looks banded, wide and the blue and amber never establish themselves. Every panel is then cut from the sheet at the same vertical position, which is what makes the colours line up across the seat line when the four are stood together - cut them from wherever the sheet allows and the back would be blue at a different height from the arms. The panels meet at mitred edges and the outer corners are left crisp rather than radiused, because a soft corner on a flat-panel chair reads as a moulding fault.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA flat-panel chair has a front and a back and very little in between, so it wants to be seen square on: at the end of a room, against a plain wall, or turned into a bay window. At 76cm the back is high enough to read as a chair from across a room. It has no upholstery, which makes it a chair for sitting in for a while rather than an evening, and better suited to a study or a dressing room than to a sitting room. Backlight it and the three colours light up in sequence up the height.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhere the Colours Meet, and Moving It\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eGive it 3–4 weeks as a standard piece, or 5–6 weeks as a bespoke commission. Any of the three colours can be specified, and the band widths between them set with the order. A seat pad can be made up if the chair is for regular use, and the back can be cut down toward the arms for a chair with a low profile. The four panels are bonded here at their mitres and the chair arrives assembled, since a mitre made on site cannot be brought to the same finish. It is bulky rather than heavy and two people will bring it in comfortably. Every face is filmed and the film is left on until the chair is standing where it will live. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFour flat panels in three colours belong with our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/acrylic-sculptures\"\u003eacrylic sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e; a grade cut at one height across every panel leads to our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/geometric-sculptures\"\u003egeometric sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and a chair to face square on joins our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/indoor-sculptures\"\u003eindoor sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e76cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e70cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e63cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eThree-Hue Graded Cast Acrylic\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54003699614043,"sku":"Y034","price":3915.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/Y034.jpg?v=1790883263","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/blue-to-amber-graded-panel-acrylic-armchair-76cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
