From the first sight Anti Crise Chair is the designer's funny invention to make the ordinary thing being extraordinary. But the main idea of Portuguese industrial designer Pedro Gomes, who has created this chair, was totally different.

There are three strategic parts of his product: the first one is a traditional money pot; the second part is a feeling of emergency which is connected with the only one way to have an access to the saved up money - to cut a chair with a handsaw integrated into the back of the chair; and the third part is a birth of a new material personality after the procedure of getting money. Pedro Gomes positions his product as an experimental object, a furniture piece played as a manifest.
