Caillou: Contemporary Lounge Chair

About the Item

CAILLOU CHAISE ROUSSEAU’S WORK INVITES THE OBSERVER TO APPRECIATE THE CHAISE NOT MERELY AS A SEATING OPTION BUT AS AN ART OBJECT. THE TACTILE EXPERIENCE OF THE PIECE—THE SMOOTHNESS OF ITS SURFACE, THE SEAMLESS FLOW OF ITS FORM—SPEAKS TO A PROFOUND UNDERSTANDING OF BOTH AESTHETIC AND ERGONOMIC PRINCIPLES. THE CHAISE IS DESIGNED TO CRADLE THE HUMAN FORM, PROVIDING COMFORT WITHOUT COMPROMISING ITS ARTISTIC INTEGRITY. THE CAILLIU CHAISE’S SLEEK DESIGN IS FURTHER ENHANCED BY ITS FINISH, WHICH CAPTURES AND REFLECTS LIGHT, CREATING AN EVER-CHANGING INTERPLAY OF SHADOWS AND HIGHLIGHTS. THIS DYNAMIC INTERACTION WITH ITS ENVIRONMENT ENSURES THAT THE CHAISE REMAINS A FOCAL POINT IN ANY SPACE, ITS APPEARANCE SUBTLY SHIFTING WITH THE TIME OF DAY AND THE QUALITY OF LIGHT.

Wave Lounge by Eduard Locota. Turquoise-Blue Acrylic Glass Sculptural Design
By Eduard Locota
Located in Timisoara, RO
Once upon a time, in the middle of the Ocean, on a very still day, while the sun was shining, a wave has appeared. Why did the wave appear exactly at that place and time? Nobody knows. What we know for centuries, is that the Ocean is never still, and always has waves at the horizon. We know that a wave is only energy. Energy transmitted through particles of water, causing it to swirl into an endless circular motion. And if not obstructed, waves have the potential to travel across an entire ocean basin. The story of the Wave Lounge was born once upon a time, while gazing at the never-ending blue horizon. Inspired by the vast energy of the wind and sea strongly colliding together, the idea of this monolithic functional sculpture was thus born. The concept As a piece of the Ocean, a strong presence of mass was needed in the style of Wave Lounge. The twist of a wave near braking point, encapsulated in time, that will completely charm the viewer’s eyes. With a total neglect for traditional design, this fully functional design piece will undoubtedly generate emotions. Be prepared to take a large slice of wave right into your home. Build process Build fully by hand, with acrylic glass as a primary material. For each piece, literally over 200 Kg of material was used for this monolithic functional artwork. it is necessary to pour over 60 colored layers of liquid acrylic...
