The Design
About Wall O Muurstoel
Wall-O is 'n slim en elegante muurkapsule. By die huis, in die kantoor of in 'n wagkamer dien dit as 'n soort kokon wat jou teen geraas en gierige oë beskerm. Danksy sy herwonne PET-koevert en sy eko-vriendelike tekstiel-binnekant van die hoogste gehalte, is Wall-O omgewingsvriendelik. Die radikale en minimalistiese lyne word bestudeer met die doel om die ideale ruimte te bied om gemaklik gevestig te voel en om 'n mens se gedagtes te kan bevry en veilig te voel.

- Inspiration
- The first idea was to develop a seat to relax on a large unoccupied wall of a house. After radicalizing its envelope, the shape of the capsule became evident. The challenge was to fix the seat to the wall, without visible fixing, while keeping it light and sober, as if to encourage curiosity about an unusual seat.
- Project Duration
- project started in November 2020 in Grandvillard (CH). The first prototype left the workshops in February 2022 and the final version in June 2022. It received an award at the European Product Design Awards in August 2022
- Operation Flow
- Wall-O simply attaches to the wall, in your living room or in a waiting room. Its soft acoustic envelope in PET felt invites you to immerse yourself in it as in a benevolent cocoon. The absorbing effect of ambient sound immediately gives you serenity and undressed comfort.
