The Design
About Square and Round Multifunkčné sedenie
Square and Round je multifunkčné sedadlo vyrobené z bukového dreva a akrylu. Priehľadný akrylový povrch odhaľuje vnútornú drevenú konštrukciu. Umiestnený jedným spôsobom tvorí povrch ľahké sedadlo. Otočený hore nohami sa ten istý povrch stáva odkladacím stolíkom s priehlbinou, do ktorej možno odložiť kľúče a iné drobné predmety. Jednotlivé časti sú spojené tradičnou konštrukciou s dvojitým rybinovým klinom, takže nie sú použité žiadne kovové spojovacie prvky. Sedadlo možno rozobrať rukou, keď sa nájde zaisťovací klin. Ploché balenie znižuje prepravný objem.
