The Design

About Chinte ottoman Pouf

Chinte est un pouf modulaire conçu pour les habitations, les bureaux, les musées, les halls d'accueil et les atriums. Sa forme s'inspire du motif chintemani, composé de trois cercles. Chacun des trois éléments peut être utilisé séparément ou en association avec les autres. Les éléments extérieurs peuvent être tapissés de tissu, de cuir, de feutre ou de lin. L'élément central est réalisé en marbre pour les grandes dimensions et en bois pour les plus petites, afin d'en alléger le poids. Cet élément central offre également un espace de rangement pour les magazines et les livres. De nombreuses combinaisons de couleurs et de dimensions sont possibles.

Unique Properties
Chinte ottoman has not just been designed for home use, but also for wide areas such as museums, atriums, lobbies. It can be produced in countless different colour combinations, from many different materials and in different sizes according to place it will be used, if desired.
Due to its sectional mechanism, it can be used seperately if needed.

As well as it provides the owner put-your-feet-up comfort, chinte can also be used as extra seats for guests for home use. The innermost part made of wood or fabric provides storage space inside for magazines, books etc or scattered things around that should be quickly out of sight when needed.

Production Technology
According to the area of usage, materials can differ. Materials like fabric, leather, felt, linen can be utilized for the outer circles, spots. The smallest namely innermost part is thought as marble for large ottomans which are used in wide areas such as lobbies and it can also be made of wood in smaller ottomans to eliminate the weight by home usage. The each three spots of the figure can be used seperately if desired.
Inspiration
Ottomans are upholstered furniture used as stool, coffee table etc to make people comfortable. Refered to its root, these furniture has been named after Ottoman Empire. On the other hand, cintemani motif which consists of three main circles and circles drawn within has a profound meaning in Ottoman culture and it is a well-known and widely used cultural figure. This pattern is considered as the symbol of strength, power and sovereignty. I'd like to combine and synthesize the motif and ottoman in one unique and modern design.
