This is a large lounge chair, for one person. I would rather feel being proud of being watched, rather than being completly relaxed.

@ soudabeh
students , designers and users should embrace an open attitude , make full use of posts +positive + negative comments…and give here their personnal analysis or vision about projects or products

theo, its a nice drawing, a small architecture as i said previously but design is much more than a shape of a chair or of a lounge

“it sits on the floor and you park your arse in it, end of.” ???
If I was Mr. Spock I would say it is that simple. But the human being is not as logical as they think they are. Or we seat in simple boxes at our homes? I don´t think so.
We do look for something more in a chair, or a table or anything we buy for ourselves.
That´s why a designer is needed.
Two chairs serves the same way but they will sell diferently depending on design.

db
the problem with writing short comments on blogs it that it the real world is much more complicated.
there is a lot in between the architectural approach and the designer approach that is functions perfectly well as a way to create stuff. a good architect has some material sense and a good designer has some sense about volumes and spaces etc.
the best architects and designers are good on both levels..so yes..aalto can make chairs,..pretty ones too.
and prouve is a maser in details and one might even consider him an industrial designer that makes good buildings…(and chairs)
so db,..for every statement made there can be found evidence for the opposit..but since i try to keep comments short..they are more blunt than my actual opinion;-) (therefore maybe sound naive.)

Well Zuy, to answer that question I have to quote Xtiaan on a very intelligent answer: “it sits on the floor and you park your arse in it, end of.”

that’s all ….

Definitely a rendering.
Let’s see what it looks like when it’s real. No stitch details on upholstery, the connections are not impossible, but not probable. It seems unfinished and appears as if it hasn’t yet been worked through in physical models/prototypes.

Nice drawing though.
