Transportable reclining chair with three possible angles of the back
without having an optical interruption in the formal flow.

The backrest and the legpart of the chair are connected through a radial
segment
which can be changed by moving the two parts together, so the angle of the
backrest
changes without causing an formal interruption between back and legpart of
the chair.

To change the seating position you have to shift the balance to another point,
for example by repositioning your hand or leg....and the reclining chair
starts rocking.

If you want to move to a nicer place, you can fold the chair and roll it to
the place of your desire.

The singel parts of the rocking chair are cnc-cut out of multiplex and have
a Neoprene surface integrated,
which padds the seating surface and has the possibility for outdoor and
indoor use..

The neckrest has the same structure as the chair, thus it can be fitted
anywhere on the chair,
just by sticking it into the structure - there is no other attachment needed.
