Dual-purpose design has become a very popular vertical within the industry, which is seeing solutions like the 'Dividi' chair be designed to acknowledge preferences for maximum functionality. The chair looks like a traditional chair from afar yet will come apart to reveal two seating solutions: a utilitarian bench-style seat and a traditional Japanese zaisu.
The 'Dividi' chair is the design work of Alex Bocchi and has been designed with a distinct attention to different aesthetics to create something that is modern yet approachable all at once. The 'Dividi' is crafted from birchwood that offers a light color and a natural fragrance, while the padding for the chair portion is covered in field fabric with a thick texture that is made by Kvadrat.
