the dot

by AJJI from india

designer's own words:

A piece from the Sink collection of chairs by Lekha Washington, the Dot is a dramatic piece intended to be hung on the wall and used as a
chair. It is very comfortable with moulded foam on the inside while appearing flat and un-sit-able on the outside. The significance of a red dot has been well documented in several cultures from japanese "Hinomaru" to the indian Bindi.
It easily hinges onto the wall much like a flat-screen TV and has removable covers illustrated by the video. It's core is a light stainless steel body built to last. Fundamentally, The Dot is a stellar example of art meeting design seamlessly. For more information visit www.ajji.in
