Peace of mind can be found in co-existing with animals. While its most basic function is to provide one with a place to sit, chairs can be more than just a piece of furniture and perceived as more than just a means of alleviating physical weariness. Through the utilization of animal motifs and their calming effects, these chairs can elevate one’s sense of well-being, providing the user with relief from both the physical and mental.
Objects are nothing more than objects. However, though contact, they can have the ability to bring a smile to our faces, heal and sometimes even make us cry- jolting our emotions and bringing about new sensations. When designing, it is the capacity of objects to evoke new feelings that I keep in mind.
