Sofa-Dress by MAEZM Studio
Korean design studio MAEZM have created the Sofa-Dress.
From the designers:
‘sofa-dress’ is a job of space design and a suggestion of furniture design. The act of putting on the clothes of the “sofa” on the existing chair in itself makes the previous object become a little more cushiony furniture and it also can achieve an intention as a unified space with the same cuticles. The ‘sofa-dress’ projects the past objects through the rays of space, which makes a new present without removing the past completely. The black and transparent cuticles reveal the past objects in secret. Its material is the special blowing-type urethane foam and plays a role in screening the rays and simultaneously getting rid of a feeling of weight. Simply beyond the cuticles covering the chair, ‘sofa-dress’ holds an intention of a new-styled design experiment with its own form and mass.

What a cool idea. It’s great when you see new ideas like this, probably one of the lightest armchairs in the world.

It’s not enough sofisticated.
Look this (created in 1995)…

L’idea è fantastica! La linea perfetta, mi piacerebbe ricevere un eventale catalogo di altri prodotti e , comunque , il listino prezzi.
Grazie e complimenti
