GVAL is a product that brings surprising and playful use to an object as ordinary as an everyday chair. The form of the chair is a careful balance of many requirements: ergonomic demands to fit the human body in a variety of positions, modularity of pieces that can fit together like a puzzle in a variety of ways, and intention to create an abstract form that radiates sense of lightness, familiarity and invitation to touch, use and play.
