Spherically Stacked Seating

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Yin Yang Chair is a Pair of Seats That Each Forms Half of a Sculpture

— March 3, 2013 — Art & Design
Furniture can certainly be both decorative and functional, but the Yin Yang Chair takes the former aspect to the next level. When they're set up so to welcome sitters, the armchairs flaunt elegant fluid lines and beautiful curvaceous bases; however, when they're pieced together, the furnishings take on an unexpected form.

Nina Vlajkovic's single-seater sofas are gorgeous enough to be kept separated for continuous use as prized pieces in one's living room. They feature glossy convex shells of black or white, supportive armrests and backrests and plushy upholstery to keep you cozy. But should you prefer to keep the Yin Yang Chair set for overflow seating, one object can be placed on top of the other to conserve interior space. Together, the duo forms a beautiful two-toned sphere that gives the product its name.
