Lymphochair

Chair
Wood, metal, felt, PU; 80х62х62 cm
Edition: 50.


PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Lymphochair is an iconic piece that reimagines the classical form of a chair. Inspired by the intricate beauty of biological cells, it symbolizes a vital part of us — the lymphocytes. Designed to balance aesthetic appeal with functional purpose, it transforms the organic form of an immune cell into an experience that is both visually striking and ergonomically refined. The removable backrest reveals a spherical, legged seat. Filled with polyurethane foam and upholstered in wool, it offers lasting comfort, minimal maintenance, and smart temperature adaptation — retaining warmth in the cold and releasing it on warmer days.

LEGEND:
Lymphochairs are warriors of the planet Orginion, its guards, akin to the regular army. They embody lymphocytes as the personification of the immune cell in a human body. At the very beginning, it is a chair that is still a dormant lymphocyte. Every time people sit on it, this simple action becomes hatching it like eggs. It turns out that a person must unassisted hatch his immune cell. After it wakes up and grows up from the warmth, it acquires battle skills, weapons, costumes. Afterwards it is allocated around the planet Orginion — each Lymphochair to a special place. If it ends up on Earth, then it will exist in houses of people who have obtained it and will gradually be hatched. Limphochair which has woken up on Earth becomes the defender of the person who hatched it and does his will.

SPECIFICATIONS:
The chair consists of a deep white pinkish felt cover, silver or white metal rods and blue or brown straps. The back of a chair can be removed and the spherical chair legged seat remains. A soft filling is made of polyurethane foam. The upholstery is made of wool, which does not require unnecessary cleaning and perfectly keeps the heat in a cold room temperature, and gives it up on hot days.
