About Toma Diivan
Toma on elamispindadele mõeldud diivan. Toma vorm lähtub ideest mähkida kogu iste ühte kangatükki, sarnaselt kreppkangaga. Tulemuseks on pehmete lainetustega katkematu pind, mis ümbritseb istujat. Keeruka kumera pinna saavutamiseks, mida oli raske toota, kasutati venivat kangast. Toma laius on 1580 mm, sügavus 950 mm ja kõrgus 850 mm. Disain otsib tavapärasele mööbliesemele vabamat vormi.
