Comfortable Floor-Level-Chair: Umarmung by Cheungvogl
The international architectural studio based in Hong Kong, Cheungvogl has designed Umarmung. A floor-level-couch. This project is inspired by the ancient tradition of floor-sitting culture in Japan.
The designers kept the idea that traditionally, the connection between the body and the conversation must not be restricted to “universal seat height and conventional definition of the sofa.”
The design is basically a backrest supporting the body in many comfortable positions, while that person is either sitting up or leaning back. Its steel structure is covered by reinforced polyester resin and eco-friendly flame-retardant polyurethane foam.
