PERSONAL SEAT
500 x 500 mm
Materials – Pine plywood
Year – 2013
Status – Prototype
A personal and intimate seat inspired on human's nature, reflecting our structural and systematic way of living and showting how visceral and instinctive we are.
The segmented volume shape is given by a basic elliptical constructed module which evolves and moves upwards and downwards to create the seat area. The whole structure is supported by itself, thanks to a forces sequence along the piece. Despite this, four screws were used for safety issues. Its aesthetics allows the user to see through it without loosing its visual weight in the environment.
