This chair design was a collaboration between Shannah Frank and Casey Melton. During the design process shannah had just created a firescreen for a client by cutting an image out of metal. Casey loved the concept. They decided to use an old design of Casey's that she made in a wood bending class at Haystack Craft School. They replaced the back of the chair with a piece of aluminum which was water-jet cut into a wood grain pattern. The aluminum sides are made to hold the back in place, support the seat and the arms for the flip side. It is beautiful how the image on the metal back mimics the wooden seat. It was only fitting that they name the chair that swings both ways after a famous drag queen, frank-n-furter. This chair is part of the f. line of furniture and can be reproduced. Shannah and Casey have a passion for creating multi-functional designs whether it is art and function or two chairs in one.
