Despite its seemingly anonymous presence, he designed it for times when a chair might not be easy to spot.
“It’s difficult to recognize its existence at first sight. But once you notice it – you will be able to experience resting in a space with the image of blocking and disconnection” says Hyokk.

“Fences usually require a lot of building material to be made but once finalized, they’re relatively less noticeable and merely designs that exist for objects other than themselves.
The Invisible Chair uses this very characteristic of a fence to lower the accessibility of stimuli” he adds.
Malleable by design – some of the chain-links that form the mesh grids were removed and re-bent to build the shape of this fascinating four-legged chair that brilliantly emerges from the fence’s center area.
