DYNING

This project was a collaboration between two designers, me and Christian Berglin together with an upholstery maker, Sofia Ericsson.

"Dyning" is a furniture that is inspired by historical furniture and their shapes while adding a modern touch. During and after the pandemic we have seen a lot more people working from home, and we wanted to create a furniture that can be used as a working space while remaining comfort.

The puddle

By adding a function to the cushion, it becomes more than just a detail. We created the puddle to be able to keep the cushion steady so when you open it, it stays put and becomes a side table.

Function

Not only can you use the cushion as a side table, if you place it in your knee with your laptop on top you will get a perfect angle for your hands while typing.

PROCESS

We send our drawings of the frame to Magnussons Snickeri in south of Sweden that helped us to build it.

Sofia Ericsson did a fantastic work with the upholstery! She used the fabric “Grain” from Gabriel fabrics.
