# Wispy Cloak-Like Seating Solutions The Double-Skin Armchair by Onur Ozkaya Highlights Fluidity By Michael Hemsworth | Published 2013-02-22 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/onur-ozkaya References: [notcot.org](http://www.notcot.org/post/52757/) & [onurozkaya](http://www.onurozkaya.co.uk) London-based designer Onur Ozkaya's Double-Skin Armchair features an almost ghostly appearance that enwraps the sitter in what must be one of the most [ergonomically designed chairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/autonomous-ergochair-ultra-2) I've ever seen. While other seating solutions can be quite rigid, the Double-Skin Armchair contours to the natural curves of the body and provides what must be a somewhat weightless seating experience. The creation looks like a molded piece of carbon fiber, which adds immensely to the ethereal feel that the design exudes. There is no shortage of [post-modern chairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/archipen) on the market, but most follow a very minimalistic aesthetic that is focused more on not drawing too much attention. The Double-Skin Armchair, however, doesn't just stand as an [accent piece](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/amia), but rather a full-on focal point that will entrance the onlooker and surely cast them under it's spell. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.3/10 - Popularity: 20% | Activity: 10% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Modern](https://www.trendhunter.com/modern) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Ergonomic Seating:** The Double-Skin Armchair showcases a new level of ergonomic design that contours to the natural curves of the body, creating a weightless seating experience. - **Ghostly Aesthetics:** The ethereal appearance of the Double-Skin Armchair presents an opportunity for creating seating solutions with ghostly, enwrapping designs. - **Attention-grabbing Furniture:** The Double-Skin Armchair challenges the minimalistic aesthetic of many chairs on the market, highlighting the potential for creating furniture that serves as a full-on focal point. ### Who This Affects Most - **Furniture Design:** The Double-Skin Armchair demonstrates the possibility for innovative seating solutions that prioritize ergonomic design and captivating aesthetics. - **Interior Design:** The ghostly appearance of the Double-Skin Armchair opens up opportunities for interior designers to incorporate unique, enwrapping furniture styles in their projects. - **Product Manufacturing:** The Double-Skin Armchair's use of carbon fiber-like material suggests a disruptive innovation opportunity for manufacturers to explore lightweight, molded furniture production techniques. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Circular Modernist Chair Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zerogravity-chair.md) - [Rope-Like Dynamic Chair Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/caterpillar-lounge.md) - [Anatomical Lounge Seating](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/himalaya-pelvis-chair.md) - [Wavy Lounge Chair Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wavy-lounge-chair.md) - [Structurally Complex Chair Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-arch-chair.md) - [Ergonomic Butterfly-Inspired Chairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wings-chair.md) - [Wellbeing-Harnessing Fan-Like Chairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shanti-chair.md) - [Air-Filled Seating](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/knit-one-chair.md) - [Enveloping Nested Layer Armchairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-hug-armchair.md)
