About Chinte ottoman 坐墩

Chinte是一款组合式坐墩，适用于住宅、办公空间、博物馆、大堂及中庭。其造型取材于由三个圆形构成的"чинтемани"（三圆纹）图案。三个部分既可单独使用，也可组合使用。外侧部分可采用织物、皮革、毛毡或亚麻面料包覆。最内侧部分在大尺寸款中采用大理石制作，小尺寸款则改用木材以减轻重量。最内侧部分同时可作为杂志与书籍的收纳空间。可提供多种色彩搭配与尺寸选择。

Unique Properties: Chinte ottoman has not just been designed for home use, but also for wide areas such as museums, atriums, lobbies. It can be produced in countless different colour combinations, from many different materials and in different sizes according to place it will be used, if desired.
Due to its sectional mechanism, it can be used seperately if needed.

As well as it provides the owner put-your-feet-up comfort, chinte can also be used as extra seats for guests for home use. The innermost part made of wood or fabric provides storage space inside for magazines, books etc or scattered things around that should be quickly out of sight when needed.

Production Technology: According to the area of usage, materials can differ. Materials like fabric, leather, felt, linen can be utilized for the outer circles, spots. The smallest namely innermost part is thought as marble for large ottomans which are used in wide areas such as lobbies and it can also be made of wood in smaller ottomans to eliminate the weight by home usage. The each three spots of the figure can be used seperately if desired.
Inspiration: Ottomans are upholstered furniture used as stool, coffee table etc to make people comfortable. Refered to its root, these furniture has been named after Ottoman Empire. On the other hand, cintemani motif which consists of three main circles and circles drawn within has a profound meaning in Ottoman culture and it is a well-known and widely used cultural figure. This pattern is considered as the symbol of strength, power and sovereignty. I'd like to combine and synthesize the motif and ottoman in one unique and modern design.
