Rocking Dolphin

Inspired by the wild dolphins that play around Guishan Island in Yilan County, Taiwan, Rocking Dolphin is an ideal piece of furniture for children ages 1 to 3 that encourages young minds to explore their world through feel and touch. Made with 100% natural pine cut to precision with CNC fabrication, the dolphin features soft, sanded edges that eliminate the risk of abrasion or other injury. The dorsal fin provides the main seating area of the Rocking Dolphin, while the side fins offer a place where children can rest their feet.

y.O

Inspired by the Wassily Chair and Corbusier’s Sling chair the y.O Zmart Chair has the unique ability to convert from a reclining position to an upright dining position in one motion without latches or hardware using only proportion, geometry and gravity while remaining in one piece as one object. The convertible chair design started with inspiration from early 20th century furniture designs and ended with this patented design creating a new type of chair. In either position the y.O Zmart Chair will be there to support you.

Pomo

Pomo is a contemporary design sideboard inspired in the conceptual design movement. Characterized by a visual game to hide and show the door knobs and drawers from a subtle geometric style which confers an elegant character. Its hypnotic presence gives an unique personality wherever it is placed. Available only in limited edition.

Compass

“The Compass”, a working desk for architects and designers. This desk creates a comfortable workspace for one or two people and provides an opportunity to draw on a sloped surface thanks to a simple mechanism, which transforms part of the top into a drawing board with a fixed 20 degree angle. The shape of the support legs resembles two pairs of compasses. Many metal details were used in line with the idea of a technical drawing tool.
