DESIGN DETAILS
DESIGN NAME:
High Back

PRIMARY FUNCTION:
Stepup chair

INSPIRATION:
One day, while staring at the bookshelf, I accidentally came up with the idea of this chair, And as a result of thinking about the structure for establishing as a stepladder, this curve was born. It was conception and inevitable proportion coincidentally born.

UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
The Stepup Chair isn’t just a high-backed chair, it’s a piece of furniture that can also be used as a bookshelf step-ladder. It can be used for hanging clothes on, or in any other creative ways the owner might imagine. It’s a beautiful work of art that can serve multiple functions, and a never-before-seen, brand new concept in the world of home furnishings.

OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION:
A bookshelf can cover an entire wall, and as such the design of the bookshelf becomes the defining characteristic of that space. However, the design of the functional and indispensible stepladder always seemed to be lacking something. So, on this occasion I decided to use the stepladder as the focal point, and by combining the stepladder with the function of a chair, I was able to create an item that can lend a fresh new atmosphere to any space. Thus, the Stepup Chair was born, a high-backed chair that is a fusion of both functionality and art.
