In 1963, Teresa Kruszewska was asked to design seating for children of different ages at the hospital in Kraków-Prokocim. She answered with symmetry: a mirrored back and base, and a seat positioned so that turning the chair over produced a second seat height. It was light enough for a child to move alone, engineered for mass production – and, in the end, made in almost no quantity. One of the most original Polish furniture ideas of its decade remained an unfinished task.

63 years later, Krystian Kowalski completed it. Working with 366 Concept, he took Kruszewska's principle, a few repeating elements composed into one narrowing form, and designed a full-size chair around the adult body: new proportions, a more fluid line of the back, the relationship of seat to backrest tuned in millimetres across two years of prototypes. The result keeps everything that made the original remarkable: the lightness, the symmetry, the silhouette you recognise at once. And it gives the idea what it was always meant to have – daily use, at the table.
