Core77

"Oyster" chair by Kawamura Ganjavian

You might have come across Madrid based studio Kawamura Ganjavian before with their weird and wonderful experiments with objects to amplify the sense (on Core77 here) or their recent "Binpan".

Studio KG's newest creation is a lovely foldable felted seat that is intended to bring a touch of cosiness to sleek, contemporary furniture. When folded up the Oyster acts as neat little cushion only to tranform into a very snug "private shelter" when unfurled.

A couple of these would be a great addition to my living room. So, where do I send my money?

I'm surprised low-slung chairs (not really sure what to call them) where you're very close to the ground haven't received more attention in the US. They're typically very comfortable as you can stretch your legs out without the need for foot stools. Love this chair!
