Audi at the Design Miami/

The R18 Ultra Chair set to be exhibited by Audi at Design Miami/
was masterminded by Clemens Weisshaar and Reed Kram, who represent
a new generation of digital designers. The prototype was developed
in cooperation with the Audi Lightweight Construction Center and
made its very first appearance at the Milan Furniture Fair in
April. The chair was fine-tuned using data obtained from an
interactive installation that was trialed by over 1,500 testers,
plus the know-how of Audi lightweight engineers. The result is
sturdier, more comfortable and one kilogram (2.20 lbs) lighter.
