Phil Cuttance - Master


Phil Cuttance is a master.

A master at design, a master at making me warm between my loins...





PINE, FOAM, INKJET PRINTED FABRIC FROM ORIGINAL ILLUSTRATIONS, UPHOLSTERY.

An upholstered, throne – like chair. Inkjet-printed original illustrations
depict a fantasy scene on the fabric.

Designed for export in mind, the upholstered chair breaks down into a seat, back and a pair of arms and is easily assembled, requiring only nine furniture connector bolts and an Allen key.


best in show mirror, 2007, prototype




MDF, PLEATED RIBBON, MIRROR.

Feel like winner every time you look in the mirror






MOULDED PLYWOOD, VELVET LYCRA, FOAM AND FIBRE FILL.

Inspired by an image of a python swallowing a kangaroo. The upholstered snake can be slipped on and off the chairs, and the backs can be interchanged to create two-tone animals.





MDF, LENTICULAR IMAGE, GLASS, LACQUER.

Inspired by the way furniture is (mis) used by people - and my interest in lenticular imaging - this table mocks a Memphis-esque side table upon which someone is up to no good.
The lenticular tabletop ‘magically’ reveals the image as the viewer walks by.





POLYPROPYLENE

Similar to the rough diamond, the cloud city shade’s pattern was inspired by simple pop-up book patterns. This shade is created by cutting and then folding flat shapes to create the volumetric form of a mythical ‘cloud city’.






LASER CUT STEEL, POWDER COAT..

Inspired by Rorschach inkblot tests and from my interest in randomness creating form. The tabletop form was chosen from many actual inkblots created by ink on folded paper.





POLYRESIN

Manufactured and distributed worldwide by Charles and Marie Ltd.

POLYPROPYLENE

Inspired by simple pop-up book patterns, this not-so-simple shade is created by cutting, and then folding flat, shapes to create the volumetric form of a pixellated diamond.
