E’ dello studio giapponese h220430 la bellissima ed eterea Ballon Chair. Sembra che fluttui nel vuoto appesa a 10 palloncini rossi, ma che in realtà è appesa alla parete a 50 centimetri da terra.
The beautiful and ethereal Ballon Chair by Japanese studio h220430. It looks like 10 red balloons are floating in a vacuum but they are really on the wall 50 inches from the ground.
For the realization of the Ballon Chair the designers were inspired by a French short film of the 50s, “Le Ballon Rouge” where the child protagonist fluctuate over Paris hanging from a bunch of red balloons.
The balloons are made of a material technology called FRP (Fiber Reinforced Polymer) which does not deflate, does not deform and maintains its quality intact over time.
…and the Ballon Bench version.
