Friday Five with Scott Wilson

Scott Wilson, founder of Chicago-based design studio MINIMAL , is an accomplished designer and former Global Creative Director at Nike. Over his eighteen year career Wilson has lead design organizations such as IDEO, Thomson Consumer Electronics, Fortune Brands, and Motorola. Most recently, Wilson and MINIMAL have garnered much acclaim for their TikTok + LunaTik iPod Nano Watch Kits, which shattered records to become the highest funded project in the history of Kickstarter.com, a crowd-funding platform for creative projects. Other recent design collaborations include Microsoft’s Xbox 360 + Kinect Sensor, Dell’s Venue Pro Smartphone and the SW1 Conference/Lounge Collection for Coalesse, which we checked out at NeoCon 2010 and it was pretty sweet.

Power Shoulder Chair

Inspired by the stylish shoulder pad look of the 80s and 90s, designer Park Jongho designed the Power Shoulder Chair to resemble the look as it begins to make a comeback in modern fashion. Made of galvanized steel, the Power Shoulder represents the shoulder pad style with the alternating proportions between its long legs and short seat back.

To create the Power Shoulder Chair, the steel planes are cleaved and then divided into smaller planes. The angles of the steel enable the chair to present sharp, three-dimensional angles. As seen in the images, the Power Shoulder Chair is made in a variety of colors.
