- Chadwick's Modular Seating is made of Urethane foam cushioning molded over plywood, steel, and molded polystyrene structure. The base is molded, black polystyrene. The molded polystyrene connector is then riveted to a steel bar.
This object, in the collection of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, was a prototype for the production version which included interchangeable seats that can be formed to a custom design thanks to multiple seating arrangements in lounge seating height. The seating can be linked together in any combination with fastener-less connectors in custom layouts from straight line and serpentine line with practically unlimited lengths to full circle. The removable connectors maintain the multiple module arrangements in their custom form and provide for quick rearrangement into another form. One pair of connectors is required for the joint between each module. Each module is neatly tailored and has fully upholstered front, back, and sides for application as either end or interior seat of an arrangement. Arrangement can be made with straight module with parallel sides; inside and outside wedge modules with 22. 5 degree sides; wedge modules provide quarter circle arrangement; 8 wedge modules provide half circle; 16 wedge modules provide full circle all with seating facing either inside or outside as specified; A single straight module provides a complete chair; 3 straight modules with two pair connectors provides a complete 84 inch wide sofa, convertible in moments to a 56 inch wide sofa and a single chair, or to three single chairs.
