The Brickchandelier and the Brickchair, created by Dutch designer Pepe Heykoop, are made with recycled children’s wooden blocks. The Brickchair was inspired by the illustration called All The Chairs I Sat On, by American artist James Gulliver Hancock.
The artist explains the Brickchair with; “I fell in love with the image immediately. The chair up left in the corner caught my eye. From now on I could only think of bricks when looking at the picture. The Brickchair is the interpretation of a drawing, which was already an interpretation of an old existing chair. It transformed twice and ended up in bricks. After the Brickchair I started building the Brickchandelier to check out the possibilities. It reaches over 2 meters and holds over a 1000 bricks.”
A graduate of the Design Academy Eindhoven, Pepe Heykoop is known for his innovative chair designs including the Restless Chair.
