The Design

About 365 선 라운저

365는 사계절 내내 정원과 실외에서 사용할 수 있도록 디자인된 선 라운저입니다. 곡선형 프레임과 접이식 등받이는 심미성, 편안함, 그리고 쿠션 보호 기능을 하나로 결합했습니다. 등받이를 아래로 접으면 방수 표면이 먼지, 꽃가루, 새 배설물, 비와 눈으로부터 쿠션을 보호해 주므로 사용 전 별도의 청소가 필요하지 않습니다. 쿠션은 통기성이 유지되어 곰팡이 발생을 방지합니다. 이 라운저는 접착 적층 공법으로 성형한 내구성 높은 아코야(Accoya) 목재로 제작되어 도장, 겨울철 커버, 보관 공간이 필요하지 않습니다.

Unique Properties: The 365 Sun Lounger is the first piece of garden furniture with cushions that resists the forces of nature and is always ready for use. The curved form of the chair together with the foldable backrest serves three functions combined: aesthetics, comfort and unique protection for the cushions. There is no need for wiping dust, pollen or bird droppings, or snow. All you need to do is to flip the waterproof backrest open and enjoy the dry, clean and soft cushions.
Dimensions & Packaging: 1800mm x 660mm x 430mm
Tags: sun lounger, outdoor, sustainable, easy, luxury
Production Technology: The lounger offers a feeling of luxury with perfect ergonomics and comfort. It looks stylish also when not in use and requires no winter covers. The cushions are well ventilated to resist mould also when the back rest is folded down. The lounger is made of sustainable and extremely durable Accoya which lasts decades and requires no painting. Curve form with glue lamination. Minimal production waste. The ecological life cycle footprint is further minimized as there is no need for storage space.
Research: Lean Service Creation was used as the base design method. The users problem worth solving was defined based on user insight interviews among end users and interior designers. The design process was prototype heavy. Dozens of protos were made to find the optimal curve for ergonomics and weather shield. As the construction needs to be watertight typical furniture building methods do not apply.
Inspiration: The design was inspired by the short Nordic summer: the sunny moments are rare and too precious to be wasted cleaning furniture and carrying cushions back and forth. Why are outdoor furniture designed for decades so that they can’t handle outdoor conditions? As a designer I was tempted to try to show that it’s possible to redesign everything. Not just to change the form factor or ergonomics but to change the way the way the chair is used and the daily value it can provide.
Project Duration: Project was started 02/20 in Espoo Finland and finished 02/22.
Operation Flow: When the rain stops and the sun start shining. Take a coffee and walk to the garden. Lift up the backrest and sit down to enjoy.
