About Familial Cathair

Is cathair adhmaid í Familial atá deartha lena húsáid ag leanaí agus ag daoine fásta araon. Iompaíonn gluaiseacht shimplí an chathaoir bunoscionn agus déanann sé í a athrú go dara cumraíocht. Freastalaíonn aon phíosa troscáin amháin, dá bhrí sin, ar dhá ghrúpa aoise, rud a shábhálann spás agus a laghdaíonn méid an ábhair a theastaíonn. Rinneadh céimseata agus uillinneacha na cathaoireach a mhionchoigeartú chun an suíochán a choinneáil ergonamaíoch agus compordach. Freagraíonn Familial do spásanna maireachtála níos lú na gcathracha plódaithe, áit a bhfuil troscán ilfheidhmeach úsáideach. Cothromaíonn an dearadh cuma agus feidhm.

Design Challenge
The primary challenge was to design an ergonomic chair by identifying the ideal geometry and then fine-tuning the angles to achieve functionality. The dual objectives of aesthetics (beauty) and performance (function) were served by creating a novel design that balances between the two.
Inspiration
Living in crowded cities has made living spaces smaller. Designers can benefit everyone by designing multi-purpose devices for these smaller spaces. There is no age limitation for using this chair, both children and adults can comfortably use this chair.
Project Duration
The project was began and completed in April 2022 in Tehran, Iran.
Operation Flow
If the chair’s configuration needs to be changed, all that is needed is a simple motion to turn over and convert the chair. The users of the chair will appreciate its user friendliness and its ease of use.
