About Motichair Kroegstoel
Motichair is 'n kroegstoel wat ontwerp is vir sitplek en gesprekvoering. Die raamwerk gebruik sirkels om die steunpunte te verbind, wat die kragte balanseer en materiaalverlies verminder. Tap-en-gatlasse tesame met volledig versteekte swaelstertlasse maak die struktuur stabiel. Die stoel is vervaardig van koolstofveselsaamgestelde materiaal gekombineer met stoomgeboë hout. Die vorm is geïnspireer deur boë en maanhekke in antieke Chinese tuine, en die sirkelvormige openinge gee 'n breër visuele gevoel. 'n Tweekleurbehandeling skei die sirkels visueel.

After research and analysis, we worked out the ideal diameter of the circle that placing two chairs side by side, and the distance between the two circle centers is the most comfortable distance we think people can communicate with.

Sitting in the chair, you can free your thoughts and keep your mind flow unobstructed. Besides, this design also syndicates fulfilled and perfect.The idea of the moon inspiration is because of the traditional Chinese festival, the Mid-Autumn Festival.We like to sit on chair and chat with friends and enjoy the moonlight.
