Martino Gamper is an Italian designer based in London who became internationally regarded through his project "100 Chairs in 100 Days". This group of works was exhibited in 2007 in London, the Milan Triennale in 2009[[1]] and will be at YBCA in San Francisco in late 2010. It has also been published by Dent-De-Leone as a book, "100 Chairs in 100 Days and its 100 Ways", recently republished as a pocket book[[2]]. The 100 Chairs project has been described by Gamper as "3D Drawing", and is typical of Gamper's practice in that it shows complete disregard for the historic design standards of harmony and symmetry.
Gamper has exhibited extensively both in the UK and internationally, including a chair arch of Ercol chairs for the London Design Festival at the V&A[[3]] in September 2009, the British Council exhibition "Get It Louder" in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, "Autoprogettazione Revisited: Easy-to-assemble Furniture" at the Architectural Association, London in Oct 2009 and "Super Contemporary" Design Museum, London in October 2009.
