      An amazing object/chair/sculpture in boat form ("barca" means boat in italian) designed by the danish Jacob Jorgensen.
      Apparently complex, but beautifully simple instead: just one wooden slat repeated 28 times and wrapped around a portion of a sphere. You can freely slide each slate in order to obtain infinite variations of the shape, from strictly symmetric to chaotic. Also you can rotate the whole hull on the base. You have a couple of variations here.
      Modeled and textured in Sketchup with the help of some photos and rendered in Thea. ๐Ÿ˜„

                        Nice and cool (concept and model). I wonder if it would be comfortable though.

                            Massimo, mate you have a true eye for the beautiful, a gift as a modeler, and tenacity with studio setup as Oli suggests some great work that end.

                            What a stunning piece! I hadn't seen it before and yet I'm fairly up on most chair designs - so big thanks for the eyes up!

                              Incredible!

                              Edit: Nvm. Put some thought into the modeling process. Great job.
