16 May 2022 · 365 Sun Lounger
Why do you need to carry cushions, wipe pollen and bird poo? Why? Why can't you just go to your garden and sit down and enjoy the comfort of the lounger? Because they've always been designed like that. Indoor furniture carried outside, not truly for outdoor usage. This has always been something that has annoyed me.
To create a showcase that everything even hundreds of years of design heritage can be re-designed. And to change the way outdoor furniture will be designed in the future.
I'm currently negotiating on production.
I'ts taken two years of prototyping, testing, learning and iterating.
We had just finished building our dream house and we needed outdoor furniture to the see front garden. Perfect moment to design and build my own. Of course my wife is still unhappy as the garden is full on unfinished prototypes...
No. Perhaps should have used real professionals but ended doing everything the hard way.
People who really want to enjoy the garden, to show off their friends and to be forerunners also in this sense.
It's the worlds first outdoor furniture that has comfortable cushions that is always read for use. You just fold the water tight backrest and sit down.
In Finland the summer lasts for about 6 weeks. But there are short nice moments 365 days a year. And this chair lets you enjoy them. Even during winter. Hence the 365SunLounger.
Paper, pen and a alot of wood and glue.
