murman arkitekter: ‘le mur’ for materia
‘le mur’ is a modular seating system that swedish design company materia has developed in collaboration with wivian eidsaunet and marie oscarsson of murman arkitekter. its form comes from the idea of having a room within a room and can be arranged in a number of configurations: round, pivoted or straight. there are irregularly placed buttons on the back of ‘le mur’ which are not only for decoration. they go all the way through the wall and can function as hanging devices. ‘le mur’ was presented at the stockholm furniture fair 2010.
