About Motichair バーチェア
Motichairは、着座と歓談のためにデザインされたバーチェアである。フレームは円形を用いて支持点をつなぐことで力のバランスを取り、材料のロスを低減している。ほぞ接ぎと完全に隠された蟻継ぎを組み合わせることで、構造の安定性を確保した。素材には炭素繊維複合材と曲げ木（蒸気曲げ）を用いている。造形は中国古典庭園のアーチや月洞門から着想を得ており、円形の開口部が視覚的な広がりをもたらす。ツートーンの仕上げによって、円が視覚的に分節されている。

After analyzing the differences between their living habits and hip shape, we finally selected the most suitable radians of the curve from 17 models. After research and analysis, we worked out the ideal diameter of the circle that placing two chairs side by side, and the distance between the two circle centers is the most comfortable distance we think people can communicate with.
- Inspiration
- The design is inspired by the arches, moon gate in ancient chinese gardens, the circular holes designation brings broader visual sense, which also implies that there is no barrier between communication. Sitting in the chair, you can free your thoughts and keep your mind flow unobstructed. Besides, this design also syndicates fulfilled and perfect.The idea of the moon inspiration is because of the traditional Chinese festival, the Mid-Autumn Festival.We like to sit on chair and chat with friends and enjoy the moonlight.

- Operation Flow
- The chair deliberately adopts a two-color treatment design and separates the circles independently. This special shape will attract people's attention. The distance of the invisible pedals is based on a precise measurement after the person sits on the chair, and this distance just guides people to put their feet on the pedals
