Mission

Create a furniture set consisting of a chair, an ottoman, and a side table.

It must live in a small and compact space.

Space efficient, comfortable, practical, yet beautiful. Stable, but mobile. The core idea that allowed me to fine-tune my direction was the concept of providing the best design for storing items freely without prescribing restricted interactions.
