Breathing Sofa by Wu Yu-Ying


Breathing Sofa designed by Wu Yu-Ying transforms its shape according to the body of the person who sitting on it. The design focuses on the process of sitting on a chair, as well as the interaction between the user and the chair while using it.

The design focuses on the process of sitting on a chair, as well as the interaction between the user and the chair while using it. Just like taking a breath, BREATHING is a chair that can elastically transform and
vividly provide the full support for people to sit on. When the user sits on the chair, the edges of the chair automatically become the armrest; also, when the user stands up from the chair, the chair returns to the original shape of a cube. The changing of shape is resulted from the weight of the user and the texture of
the material, instead of using any mechanism.

    I’ve got one of those already – it’s called a beanbag chair.
