About Emmett Scaun pliabil pentru exterior
Emmett este un scaun pliabil pentru exterior, conceput pentru utilizare portabilă. Cadrul este construit din aluminiu seria 6000, iar șezutul folosește o țesătură personalizată pentru exterior din poliester și nailon. Designul pliabil reduce lăsarea și ciupirea materialului, permițând totodată o dimensiune compactă atunci când este pliat. Scaunul se deschide printr-o singură mișcare, până când brațele se blochează pentru a forma un șezut bine întins, iar butoanele de pe cotiere eliberează brațele pentru pliere. Deschizătoare de sticle sunt amplasate sub ambele brațe, iar cârlige pentru genți și picioare late sunt de asemenea incluse. O geantă din poliester reciclat permite transportul scaunului pe umăr.

Recycled polyester (carrying bag) - Design Challenge
- There has historically been significant tension between comfort and portability in outdoor furniture design. Creating a piece of furniture that includes a comfortable, taut seat while still also folding compactly was a difficult design and engineering challenge. Furthermore, portable outdoor chair development in recent decades has focused on cutting costs at the expense of quality. Creating real portable comfort that can be affordably produced at scale was also a considerable challenge.
- Research
- Extensive qualitative and quantitative research across hundreds of consumers informed the design of the Emmett. The research identified significant dissatisfaction with current outdoor portable chair options, particularly in terms of comfort and design. With more people spending quality time with family and friends outdoors, the Emmett fills an important need for well-designed comfort for the modern outdoors.
- Inspiration
- The modern outdoors - relaxing with neighbors, concerts in the park, watching children playing sports - is meaningful time with family and friends, but is often not matched by the quality of products people use. Why are portable chairs so uncomfortable, and comfortable chairs immovable? True Places began by asking "What if beautifully-designed and comfortable outdoor furniture can also be portable? What if modern design and engineering can create a folding chair of quality that matches the rest of people’s lives?"
- Project Duration
- The project started in August 2019 in Philadelphia and New York City and was completed in July 2021 in Shanghai.
- Operation Flow
- The Emmett features a new folding design: the chair can be folded out in one motion until the arms lock to create a remarkably comfortable, taut seat. The chair is easily folded by unlocking the arms using the armrest buttons and folding the arms upward and inward to a compact folded position. The chair can then be stowed in the custom designed sustainable carrying bag. Each chair can be carried over the shoulder or two chairs can be connected to be carried backpack-style.
