STUDIO

Studio, a system of seating furniture that can be adapted to any need or environment. The Studio series consists of a number of different versions; Studio Twin, Studio Twin Beam and Studio Easy Chair Right / Left. The Studio Twin version creates a seating element for communication and exchange, whereas the Studio Easy chair Right / Left offer possibilities for the user to choose between open and private arrangements. The Studio Twin Beam creates opportunities for use in public spaces and for more playful organizations in public settings. In order to create a sustainable product, the shell has been designed in such a way that the complete Studio collection can be produced with two mirrored shells. In addition, the shape of the shells and the frame allow these parts to be stacked for space-saving during transport. In accordance with Offecct?s high demands on sustainability, effort has been put into choice of materials, energy, transportation and logistics to assure a product that has a minimal impact on nature. – The concept for the Studio series was to create a light, comfortable and easily rearranged collection of seating elements which incorporate a variety of spatial gestures with specific emphasis on versatility in communication, says Ben van Berkel, co-founder and architect at UNStudio. – The varied designs within the series cater for the needs and wishes of the individual in both public and private spaces. The Studio Twin not only encourages communication by enabling the possibility to face each other whilst sitting side-by-side, but is also designed to spatially introduce two visual orientations to the locations in which it is used. The Studio Easy Chair Right / Left are highly versatile, allowing the user to choose their level of connectivity to both the people and the space around them, Ben van Berkel concludes.
