Not only can the chair act as a personal signature but as a cultural signature, the social migrant status is linked with the chair as a means of an identifying cultural heritage.



 

To pursue this further we might look at the migrant threshold as a hybridised space, a restructured colonial architecture, developing it from an oppressive imperialism.



In this threshold space the chair must have a role and be of a prime importance, it is hard to think of a dominant culture not being appropriated without the symbolic use of a chair in some form of a mediatory role.
