Dutch designer Maarten Baas designed this chair with a ladder-back reaching into the sky for human rights charity Amnesty International.

The name of the five-metre design, The Empty Chair, refers to Chinese Nobel Peace Prize winner Liu Xiaobo who was unable to receive the prize in person last year as he had been imprisoned.
Baas presented the piece in Amsterdam to mark the50th anniversary of Amnesty International.
