About the Item

Pillow couch (prototype) in white lacquer and green faux fur Sizes: width 242 cm, depth 135 cm, height 87 cm material: wood, PU-foam, faux fur, car paint edition: prototype developed at alfa.brussels. Schimmel Schweikle is an ongoing collaboration between Janne Schimmel and Moreno Schweikle. Their work revolves around the nexus of technology, art and culture. In that realm Schimmel Schweikle focus on developing concepts that deal with the closing gap of the digital and physical realm. In their latest ´Pillow.pillow ´ collection they use 3d modeling software to unite opposite forms of expression into non confirmatory objects. The strict lines of the modern-style furniture that the pieces are based on is emphasized by a shiny, lacquer-like finish achieved by coating the pieces in car paint, while the blob-like upholstery additions are finished in a soft artificial fur. Each piece is the result of a digital modelling experiment, which the designers have translated into a real object. The two chairs in Schimmel Schweikle’s Pillow.pillow series combine archetypal, Minimalist furniture designs with organic shapes, “morphing” them together to create new forms. Resulting in a dualistic form of expression that challenges the need for an uncontaminated narrative.The third piece in the collection features a standard desktop computer combined with green, fur pillows, and is intended to sit on the floor of a living room. The way the computer has become so intertwined with our lives cannot be ignored. That’s why the ´Pillow.pillow Computer ´ pulls itself from the dark desk corners where it usually lives and gives itself the more prominent role it deserves in our households. In a way it is a token to the design mythology of the designers who always aims to investigate the role the digital world plays in our everyday lives. A new addition to their ´Return To Default ´ collection is also presented. ´Return To Default ´ focuses on the archetypal chairs that are found in the office, with each design manipulated in 3D software to create stretched, expanded or multiplied forms. They show a new version of an oversized conference chair, one with a lamp integrated into its body at an unusual angle, reflecting some of the ideas developed in the Pillow.pillow pieces. The chair is coated in a leathery finish.
