About Cosmic Sitkamerstoel
Cosmic is 'n sitkamerstoel wat ontwerp is vir sitkamers. Die hoekige lyne van Cosmic herroep die futuristiese rakette van die 1960's en die agterspatborde van 1959-motors, gekombineer met die edele voorkoms van Viktoriaanse tydperk-stoele. Die struktuur het geen vierkantige hoeke nie. 'n Multilaagkussing met elektriese ondersteuning pas aan by verskillende liggaamstipes. Die basis is gemaak van Duitse beukhout en word saamgestel met 'n raamwerk van soliede populierhout en hoekige aluminiumversterkings. Die bekleding word met die hand voltooi. Cosmic meet 700 mm breed, 820 mm diep en 760 mm hoog.

The vertices emulate the rear fenders of the 1959 cars, and its structure has no square angles, which gives it a very impressive dynamism that requires being the center of attention in any room. - Project Duration
- This project took 16 weeks from the first sketches to the final prototype for mass production, made in the laboratory and prototype design in Mérida, Yucatán, México.
