About Sweet Candy Loungestoel

Sweet Candy is een serie loungestoelen geïnspireerd op de ronde vormen en heldere kleuren van snoepjes. Het dragende frame is gemaakt van massief hout in zijn natuurlijke kleur, gefreesd met numeriek gestuurde machines en met de hand geschuurd afgewerkt. De zachte delen zijn met de hand gestikt uit pluche stof en gevuld met sponsmateriaal. Dankzij de ronde vorm kan men zitten met de voeten los bungelend of met opgetrokken knieën tijdens het lezen, thee drinken of rusten. De sterk verzadigde kleuren zorgen er bovendien voor dat de stoelen ook als interieurdecoratie fungeren. De stoelen zijn opgebouwd uit losse onderdelen, wat het transport vergemakkelijkt.
