Coiling Seating by Raw-Edges Design Studio
London-based Raw-Edges Design Studio, a collaboration between designers Yael Mer & Shay Alkalay, have created the Coiling seating as an experiment with coiled felt and acrylic resin.
.
Description from the designers:
An easy seat created by the simplicity of using two characteristics of woollen felt, a material with a soft surface that is suitable for seating and absorbent fibre that, combined with acrylic resin becomes a hard shell. In this way the felt becomes both the structure and the ‘upholstery’. The coiling process enable to sculpture the felt into evocative ergonomic design.
