this piece of furniture is inspired by 19th century love chairs, where two people may sit nonchalantly within each others company. It is designed with internet cafés and mediatheques in mind. Each side of the seat can sit two or three teenagers, so groups of friends may interact side by side or back to back. The flip-up tables are intended for laptop use where music, news and experiences may be shared.
