Badminton, the sound absorbing armchair that activates your creativity

Badminton, the sound absorbing armchair that activates your creativity

MARCH 2015 | 2 minutes

Badminton represents a great  commitment to sophistication, embodied in a bucket seat and with a completely innovative design. Created by ITEM Designworks, this armchair is an invitation to break the routine, change space and attract new moments of inspiration.

The Badminton armchair seeks to be the differentiating factor in today's work environment. “It is an iconic ítem within office furniture intended for Soft Seating. We have created a product inspired by the great classics such as The Egg Chair by Arne Jacobsen in the 60´s and despite their different design, maintain the same visual strength. Badminton is a kind of throne which impresses you with its size and shape”, explains Javier Cuñado, director of ITEM Designworks.

“The objective is to feel good and comfortable, always promoting an active attitude”, said Cuñado. Thanks to its dynamic and open design, it enables conversation, reading or the use of electronic devices simultaneously favouring relaxation time as well as concentration. “To maintain this active attitude, we have removed the arms and established a 180 degrees which allows the smooth engagement of conversation with the people around, and while at the same time, thanks to its high back and sound absorbing structure, protects and privatises the environment, for example, to make a phone call”. Says Javier Cuñado.

Furthermore, the Badminton swivel chair offers a wide range of possibilities in colour, textures and finishes, available for both the exterior casing and the two interior upholstered options. This set enables a multitude of personalised combinations of corporate images or for the project it is intended.

This sound absorbing chair responds to the challenge of being articulate, in an elegant way, of work and leisure in the office. It enables you to create those environments where you need to maintain active motivation, creativity and concentration while at the same time offering a new and avant-garde image right where it is present.
