Sculptured Public Chairs

Issit Brings Art And Style Into Public Seating

— February 12, 2009 — Art & Design
Ever noticed how dull and uninviting public seats are? ADDI Design is here to change all that and make you reluctant to leave your spot, even if it's time to vacate the premises. Its eye-catching seating arrangement is bright and elegant, featuring three chairs that unfold like rose pedals from their white base and tempt to pamper you on their ruby red surface.

A spectacular sight to the unsuspected passer-by, the curvy seats fold back automatically when not in use, forming a shape-shifting statuette – and a striking throne for the single user.

Waiting rooms in airports and train stations will never look dreary again!
