Groovy Baby
Inspired by the free forms and loose lines of the 70s, "Groovy Baby" combines groovy vibes with modern technology. At first glance, it may deceive the viewer by appearing soft and light, as if it were under the person sitting on it , "melt". But when you stop and analyze, the texture and weight of the chair surprises you. The chair was made from regional quartz sand using state-of-the-art 3D printing technology. It represents a contemporary design approach while at the same time incorporating the loose shapes and typographic elements of the 70s. The result is a chair that appears soft and light, reminiscent of the airy and rounded style of 70s pants, but is in reality sturdy and heavy.
