About Ego Leunstoel

Ego is 'n leunstoel wat ontwerp is om 'n geleentheid te bied om sy voorkoms te verander wanneer en wat jy ook al wil. As jy verveeld is vir die kleurskema, hoef jy nie 'n ander meubelstuk te koop nie, jy hoef net die posisie van die elemente te herrangskik soos jy wil en jy sal 'n splinternuwe voorkoms hê. Soms kan 'n onvoorspelbare ontwikkeling of verandering van omstandighede gebeur, veranderde bui, onverwagte gas, selfs die weer kan jou perspektief beïnvloed. Jy kan nou jou houding uitdruk deur die binneruim nuwe voorkoms te gee. Skuif eenvoudig die sagte elemente om 'n nuwe patroon te ontvang.

Research: The main research was about the shape. It was simulated physically and then tested. Strength analysis were also applied using Finite element method (FEA).
Inspiration: Sometimes an unpredictable development or change of circumstances could happen, good or bad mood, unexpected guest, even the vagaries of weather. You can express you attitude by giving your interior new look. Nice and tidy, aggressive and chaotic, extravagant and erratic... you can express your mood by surrounding furniture.
Project Duration: The very first concept was created last summer. After several revisions the shape and function have been changed dramatically. 4 months were necessary to reach the final look. Location is Bulgaria.
Operation Flow: The soft elements of the armchair are movable. Between the bended back and soft parts there is a layer with grid attached to the main board. The soft elements can slide from one position to another and create different patterns according your desire.
