“Are You Sitting Comfortably?” is an exhibition of iconic chair design held at the Institute of Technology Carlow. Organised by DesignCore Research Centre, the exhibition highlights how we, as consumers, take for granted everyday design. Featuring well-known pieces such as the Eames Lounge Chair and the Barcelona Chair, the exhibition also showcases more down-to-earth pieces, including the Thonet No. 18 and the Polyprop Chair. The exhibition posters, designed by Con Kennedy, highlight the chair design’s impact from a historical perspective and illustrate how these iconic designs have influenced popular culture.

“Are You You Sitting Comfortably?” is part of DesignWeek 2014 and is open to the public.
