About Wall O Suíochán Balla
Is capsule balla cliste agus galánta é Wall-O. Sa bhaile, san oifig nó i seomra feithimh, feidhmíonn sé mar chocún cineál a chosnaíonn tú ó thorann agus súile prying. A bhuíochas dá chlúdach PET athchúrsáilte agus a taobh istigh teicstíle cairdiúla don chomhshaol den chaighdeán is airde, tá Wall-O neamhdhíobhálach don chomhshaol. Déantar staidéar ar a línte radacacha agus íostacha agus é mar aidhm acu an spás idéalach a thairiscint chun mothú go compordach agus a bheith in ann aigne an duine a shaoradh agus mothú sábháilte.

- Unique Properties

At home, in the office or in a waiting room, it serves as a cocoon that protects you from noise and prying eyes.

Its radical and minimalist lines are studied with the aim of offering the ideal space to feel comfortable and to be able to free your mind and feel safe. - Dimensions & Packaging

- Wall-O, seat, capsule, wall seat, wall capsule
- Inspiration
- The first idea was to develop a seat to relax on a large unoccupied wall of a house. After radicalizing its envelope, the shape of the capsule became evident. The challenge was to fix the seat to the wall, without visible fixing, while keeping it light and sober, as if to encourage curiosity about an unusual seat.
- Project Duration
- project started in November 2020 in Grandvillard (CH). The first prototype left the workshops in February 2022 and the final version in June 2022. It received an award at the European Product Design Awards in August 2022
- Operation Flow
- Wall-O simply attaches to the wall, in your living room or in a waiting room. Its soft acoustic envelope in PET felt invites you to immerse yourself in it as in a benevolent cocoon. The absorbing effect of ambient sound immediately gives you serenity and undressed comfort.
