Spidique
Spidique is a chair produced with 3D printing technology in PLA. The form of Spidique was generated with Ameba software, which applies the BESO algorithm for topological optimization. The calculated shape was then refined by the design team to improve ergonomics and visual appeal. Slender lines are merged into the structure to balance appearance and mechanics. Prototypes were printed and tested for comfort and durability. The intent behind Spidique is to reach the required function with a minimal amount of plastic and reduced material waste.
