The contemporary design and architecture world have been quite taken with the promises of origami-inspired design. Many practices have been discovering the functional and aesthetic potentials of this approach and have been launching interesting projects—some for the consumer market, others as concepts to marvel at. Most recently, Ames Living channeled origami-inspired design in a seating collection called Coco. The capsule actually pays homage to comecocos which is "an origami-folded game that typically tells your fortune as the end result."
To match the whimsical playfulness of the inspiration, Ames Living used a vibrant color palette. The seating collection includes various silhouettes such as armchairs and footstools. The brand employed master artisans in Columbia who were engaged in handwaving the origami-inspired chair designs.
