We are proud to present the first of the new products this year: MOMENT by Khodi Feiz.

Moment by Offecct and Khodi Feiz

MOMENT is an easy chair that supports different activities, apart from sitting, such as snacking, reading a newspaper or working, thanks to the little table attached on the side. In short, the easy chair invites you to take a moment in the chair to do something you like.

Moment by Offecct and Khodi Feiz

When designing MOMENT, Feiz was originally inspired by old school desks made up of a wooden chair with a table attached on the side. This design gave Feiz the idea to design an easy chair supporting more activities than just sitting.

“Observing those “moments” which we engage in while seated was the key inspiration for this project. Noticing that we rarely “just sit”, we started to reflect on all the activities we do while sitting: all the moments that we read, we drink a cup of coffee, we work, we engage in conversation… ‘Moment’ was born out of these situations.”

Khodi Feiz

In his design, Feiz works from the three concepts Clarity, Concept, and Context, which is obvious also in the design of MOMENT. The easy chair has a clear design language, strong concept and high adaptability to different settings.

“The design is based on a generous flowing cup shape, supporting your body, which gently transforms into a small articulating table opening up for a surface for your coffee and closing in front of you when you want to work. This opening and closing gesture also reinforces the notion of private and public, almost suggesting to others that you are available for conversation or you are busy with work, a social gauge, if you will. “

MOMENT will be presented in Offecct’s stand A20:20 at the Stockholm Furniture Fair between February 7 and February 11 2012 together with a number of new products. Welcome!
