The Flipster Seat by Wigiwama has Modular Forms

The Flipster seat system designed by Wigiwama channels elements of comfort and play. It is a versatile lounge chair that transforms into a fold-out bed for multiple functions. It encourages users to use it for relaxation or exploration as Flipster aims to tap into a childlike feeling. This is essentially an evolved version of the brand's Flip chair, which offers the same multifunctionality with a smaller footprint. The larger size allows it to transition into a chair and an extended lounger.

The silhouette is inspired by geometric shapes and Bauhaus notions. There are three components that make up the chair: the base, the backrest, and a lumbar cushion as the pillow. Mark Litvyakov, Wigiwama’s in-house product designer noted, "For me, simple shapes are the key to achieving timeless elegance. The biggest challenge was to ensure Flipster maintains comfort and adaptability across all its uses – from seating to playing and sleeping. I believe it excels, particularly as an extra bed for sleepovers."
