PROJECT SUMMARY
Interplay Cafe Chair

What if a chair could hug itself? What if a piece of metal could look like the stroke of a pen? What if your chair could make you closer with the people around you? Or, what if your chair could speak your language? Well, this one can. Interplay is the platform for the youth, radical minds, and anyone else to speak the language of collaboration, interaction, and play.

Takeaways:
Longing for Socialization: at the time, COVID lockdowns were loosening up, and people seemed extra excited to socialize.
Destination Cafes: More and more "destination cafes" with unique decor and a friendly atmosphere have been opening up.
Ergonomics: a chair for a cafe would require around 30-120 minutes of seating, but it would likely be on the lower end of that range.
CMF Personality: I noticed many cafes using coordination of interior decor to impart a certain attitude to the space.

design seating for a hangout cafe that embodies a vision of human interaction, engagement, and playfulness.
