This is a functional sculpture-lounger, handcrafted with precision.
When not in use, it stands upright or at a 45-degree angle. A gentle push on one of its sides lowers Comet into a horizontal position, transforming it into a lounger. One side allows for lying down, while the other offers a semi-reclined seating position—both sides enable a gentle rocking motion. Once you get up, the lounger effortlessly returns to its vertical sculptural form, relying solely on gravity and its shifted center of mass.
Comet can be easily moved and rotated in space, as if it were weightless. It appears to be carved from a single block of stainless steel, but in reality, it is composed of hundreds of individual elements seamlessly joined together.
All my ideas stem from a single question: what if everything we take for granted could be done differently? This approach makes it difficult to rely on existing experience, so I create my own. It is important to me to create things that are unlike anything conceived before — while remaining refined and comfortable.
