Core material - urethane form

Urethane foam which is stronger than elastic sponge and strong in elasticity is adopted.
Even if the posture becomes stable and I ease a burden to a lower back and sit down long, it's difficult to get tired.
Design Challenge: I was particular about made in Japan as the tool you can keep using for a long time and aimed at the sophisticated shape by the simplicity to which tiredness doesn't come.
Research: arent-child communication tool.
I studied Japanese traditional crafts.
The material which is strong and lasts long was studied. I was particular about the thing which are the thing made in Japan and the interior where the room is changed according to the change and the feeling, the case that the shape changes and the seating comfort.
Inspiration: Based on the origami picture-changing box, Tsumugu's "Changing Picture Floor Cushion" was inspired by Kurume Tsumugi, a traditional Japanese patterned cloth.
Pull it out from the middle to change between the three di erent patterns.
With the warm texture and traditional Japanese patterns, this is perfect for almost any modern usage.
Project Duration: It was completed as a research result of the graduation production of the university. In July 2015 we launched an individual business, the first prototype was manufactured in November 2015.
Operation Flow: Feel like seeing, touching and imagining.
The warm shade. You can keep using it lengthily.
It's elastic and I'd like the seating comfort.
