About Poufs With 1000 Ways to Arranged Pouf

Chairry ialah sistem pouf modular yang direka untuk ruang dalaman bersama dan awam.

Satu pouf tunggal menawarkan tempat duduk peribadi, manakala susunan bulat menyokong interaksi kumpulan. Setiap tempat duduk diperbuat daripada teras polistirena tiga dimensi yang dipotong menggunakan mesin, diperkukuh dengan kayu lapis dan dilitupi dengan span dan gentian bulu. Setiap unit berukuran 650 mm lebar, 650 mm dalam dan 450 mm tinggi. Apabila tidak digunakan, pouf-pouf ini boleh disusun bertindih dan disimpan dalam ruang yang kecil.

Production Technology
As far as design methodology, the his initial design focus was multi-functionality and storage efficiency. The designer's furniture can be rearranged to suit the need of the user. When not in use, the poufs can be arranged or stacked stylistically in a discrete location. Secondly, the designer wanted to focus on ergonomics and comfort.
Each pouf seats made of a piece of 3D machine cut polystyrene strengthened with plywood and covered with foam and fleece.
Design Challenge
The making skill is a difficult challenge. The designer visited tatami maker, bamboo artist, grass weaving studio. None of them could make pie shape furniture, not to mention link them together. After surveying many places, the designer decided to use fleece fabric for sitting comfort concern.
Research
As cutting a pie, the designer moved each piece as if the pie shapes were connected together and made a square. Then he thought about what he could make using this design idea. Initially, the designer thought about creating a children's toy. Finally, he decided to create something where people could rearrange modules to suit their need. This could incorporate functionality with individual creativity.
Inspiration
When cutting a circular piece of paper into slices and playing with them , the pieces fell into so many shapes and patterns while connected to each other so the idea grew to make a child's toy. This developed into building a toy for adults to play with, therefore Chairry was born.
Project Duration
The project started in April, 2019 in Taipei and finished in August, 2019 in the same location.
Operation Flow
Unlike an open space with an ordinary pouf, these poufs can be set up stylistically in eye catching patterns for interior decoration or used functionally in a circular formation for peoples’ interaction as well as separated into smaller groups of two or three for persons’ privacy.
