Why still design chairs when there are already thousands of iconic ones? 
For their article in the Swiss magazine Hochparterre, the two design editors Anna Raymann and Mirjam Rombach commissioned me to photograph eight different chairs by young Swiss designers. Here they are - voilà!

Idea, set design and realisation all by me.
