Created by visionary designer Jaeyoung Jang, the Echoism Chair relaxes and soothes the soul who sits upon it with mellifluous musical notes.
Constructed of a wooden frame, the back and sides of this intriguing chair are strung with melodious strings, much like a harp or guitar would be. As you sit in the chair and relax for a moment, you can use the expressive sounds of the reverberating strings to reflect on your day and explore the emotions you are experiencing.
With a musical instrument built right into this seat, you will no longer find yourself sitting restlessly, twiddling your thumbs or tapping the arm rest. The Echoism Chair gives you an outlet to express yourself.
