Martin Tsankov designed the Power Nap Chair which is inspired by a conversation with his friend and business partner Milen Kisov. He found that power naps were effective in enhancing productivity at work, elevated memory, cardiovascular health, and cognitive function. Finding a comfortable space to take power naps at work can be the more difficult task and the Power Nap Chair aims to solve that natter.
It is a sleek alternative that rests between a lounge chair and a baby stroller. The chair boasts a relaxed design with a hood section that cocoons over the private bubble. It is made up of three core sections: the metal frame, the upholstered wooden body, and the folded hood on top. Notably, the body is made from 104 independent CNC-milled birch plywood triangles.
