plaws by rafael terrazas from mexico
designer's own words:
plaws
A pretty versatile “sofa”, if we can call it that way, because is more than just a place to seat. It’s the focal point of a room for teenagers, more like the epicenter of an earthquake, everything turns around it, it’s a place to relax, to watch TV, play videogames, receive friends, make homework, surf on the web and all those things teenagers do in their rooms.
Because it’s made of plastic it can be placed on the outdoors, on the garage, on the attic, basement, etc, and its very easy to clean, something you got to thank when is used by teenagers. And because it’s made of plastic it comes on a huge variety of colors that can also be repainted (with plastic paint of course) to age as the owner does or just simply to personalized graffiti stile.
The back of the sofa has a work area, that can be used as a desk or an extra seating area when too many friends and each side has a “screen” with an inside light with variable intensity that can be used to paste posters, photos or as alternative light source for the owners variable mood.
