Give more structure to the body-contouring capacity of the beanbag chair and you might end up with something like the Bounce Chair. Winner of an Honorable Mention for the 2012 Red Dot Design Award, Fenny Granata's piece of furniture is as functional as it is aesthetically fabulous.
A polycarbonate cylinder forms the frame of the round object and it's been made lighter for the eyes and the arms with the extraction of two oval sections from the sides. The open top was cut with a slant to make the user's approach easy and her position more comfortable as she trusts the crisscrossing silicone cords with her weight. Manufactured by One Evolve Pvt Ltd, the Bounce Chair comes in black or clear with a choice of colorful strings.
