The Wormhole by Igor Lobanov is a foldable seating concept that offers the perfect space-saving solution to today's smaller living areas.
A sleek design, the Wormhole comprises two equal elastic frames that are filled with flexible fabric. These two pieces, which are bordered by zippers, can be folded into one -- to create a seat -- simply by zipping up the borders. This convenient folding feature makes the Wormhole an easy seating solution for tighter spaces, and it can also be useful if you are having guests over.
The merits of the Wormhole by Igor Lobanov hasn't been ignored, either. It was awarded the Red Dot design Award for the "best of the best 2011" category.
