Breathing chair is a light, comfortable and sustainable seat that modifies its shape according to pressure, weight and the position of the body. After use, it reshapes to its original geometry without the use of any mechanism.
Composed of two layers of latex foam with controlled variable density, it takes advantage of the elasticity and the die cut of the material, (the latter derived from the vascular cambium of a wooden stem under a microscope), to adapt to each user.
Created by young Taiwanese designer Wu Yu-Ying, Breathing chair won the 2009 Red Dot prize.
