The Design

About Corner Hörnfåtölj

Corner är en hörnfåtölj designad för hem och offentliga miljöer. Ramen är tillverkad av askträ och sammansatt med traditionella tapp- och hakförband. Torkning, polering och målning tillämpas för att förbättra hållbarheten. Mjuk stoppning och klädseltyg kombineras med träramen. Hårda triangulära armstöd kontrasterar mot de rundade, stoppade konturerna. Sittdynans krökning, ryggstödets lutningsvinkel och armstödets höjd följer ergonomiska principer. Stolen mäter 630 x 700 x 840 millimeter.

Design Challenge
The challenge was how to achieve a harmonious unity of practicality, comfort, and art. To address that, the sofa chair marries simple, clear lines with soft curved surfaces, giving a unique visual aesthetic and improving comfort of use. Moreover, the design team, following ergonomic principles, has optimized the curvature of the seat, the tilt angle of the backrest, and the height of the armrests to ensure optimal support and an ultimate experience for users.

Inspiration
The leisure sofa chair, inspired by modern styles, takes minimalism, scientifically reasonable construction, and a deep understanding of material properties as the core. By skillfully combining a structured solid wood frame with soft upholstery, the design team has created a comfortable sofa chair that not only fully embodies rational aesthetics but also boasts remarkable recognizability.
Project Duration
This project started in Beijing in January 2024 and completed in June 2024.
Operation Flow
To enhance the user experience, the design team has utilized the padding with excellent resilience and support, while also innovating curved surfaces based on ergonomics. Besides, the lowered seat and armrests, as well as the backrest with an optimal tilt angle, ensure the chair can well fit the human body to avoid physical fatigue from prolonged sitting, offering users a comfortable space to relax.
