About Corner Kutna fotelja

Corner je kutna fotelja dizajnirana za domove i javne prostore. Okvir je izrađen od jasenovog drveta i sastavljen tradicionalnim spojevima čep i utor.

Tvrdi trokutasti nasloni za ruke kontrastiraju sa zaobljenim tapeciranim konturama. Zakrivljenost sjedala, kut nagiba naslona za leđa i visina naslona za ruke prate ergonomska načela.

- The upholstery consisting of the padding and covering, combined with the wooden frame, creates a stylish chair that is both aesthetically pleasing and comfortable.
Design Challenge: The challenge was how to achieve a harmonious unity of practicality, comfort, and art. To address that, the sofa chair marries simple, clear lines with soft curved surfaces, giving a unique visual aesthetic and improving comfort of use.

Inspiration: The leisure sofa chair, inspired by modern styles, takes minimalism, scientifically reasonable construction, and a deep understanding of material properties as the core. By skillfully combining a structured solid wood frame with soft upholstery, the design team has created a comfortable sofa chair that not only fully embodies rational aesthetics but also boasts remarkable recognizability.
Project Duration: This project started in Beijing in January 2024 and completed in June 2024.
Operation Flow: To enhance the user experience, the design team has utilized the padding with excellent resilience and support, while also innovating curved surfaces based on ergonomics. Besides, the lowered seat and armrests, as well as the backrest with an optimal tilt angle, ensure the chair can well fit the human body to avoid physical fatigue from prolonged sitting, offering users a comfortable space to relax.
