Grace

Grace is a design that translates feelings that a single word can not describe. This in combination with the conviction that form does not always follow function, but should be able to follow emotion. The result is a sculpture-like design made from a 3D printed frame, partially covered with foam for added comfort and an elastic yet durable fabric. From an aesthetic point of view, it has an elegance and shape that is somehow timeless. It can match different finishes and materials and blend into different environments: from high-end use in a hotel lobby to furniture in a private home.
