About Zazen Multifunctional na Silya

Ang Zazen ay isang multifunctional na silya na idinisenyo para sa paggawa at pagpapahinga sa mga pampublikong lugar tulad ng mga opisina at aklatan. Maaaring ibaligtad ang Zazen upang baguhin ang kanyang function. Kapag nasa itaas ang bahaging may maliit na bukas, ang Zazen ay nagsisilbing ordinaryong silya para sa pag-aaral at paggawa. Kapag nasa itaas naman ang bahaging may malaking bukas, ang Zazen ay nagiging malapad na sofa na nag-aalok ng komportableng espasyo para sa pagbabasa at meditasyon. Maaaring umupo ang mga gumagamit nang nakatawid ang mga binti sa ibabaw ng sofa. Ang Zazen ay gawa sa teak, isang matibay at matatag na uri ng kahoy na lumalaban sa pagkasira, at may sukat na 96 cm ang haba, 68 cm ang lapad, at 65 cm ang taas.

Inspiration: Daily working time and library sofa inspired us to come up with this project. Employees often need to relax during your daily work in order to refresh brain. And sofa is furniture that can make people feel more comfortable. We want to design a chair that combines advantages. It is usually a chair that can be flipped over to form a wide sofa. Users can meditate while sitting cross-legged on the sofa.
Project Duration: The project started in September 2021 in Milan and finished in February 2022 in that place, and was exhibited in China in February 2022.
Operation Flow: Turn the small-opening side up to make it an ordinary chair for study and work. On the other hand, it turns to a sofa with a large-opening side up so that creates a comfortable space for reading and meditation. When users feel stressed with current study or work, come and meditate for a while, to gain a refreshed mind.
