Minimalist Meditative Loungers

Shell by Bradley L. Bowers is Sleek, Rounded and Futuristic

— May 19, 2012 — Art & Design
Shell by Bradley L. Bowers is a meditative lounger that is extremely minimalist. So much so that to the casual observer, it wouldn't even pass as a lounger let alone a piece of furniture of any kind. It looks more like a panel of a plane or something similar. Sleek and rounded, it does offer a promising place to relax in.

More futuristic than contemporary, Shell by Bradley L. Bowers was designed with balance in mind. Not only does it bring a sense of balance to surroundings and a person's state of mind, it also forces people to maintain a balance when laying down in it. Particularly perfect for outdoor use around a pool, it was presented at the SaloneSatellite with other pieces in the Studio PLZ DNT TCH collection.
