ECCO
Design
A series of seating elements for ECCO footwear at Frieze’s No. 9 Cork Street.
Mimicking the injection-moulded, fluid form of the recently-launched Cozmo Slide, we designed a collection of colourful furniture that playfully responds to, and facilitates, the choreography of guests at an art opening.
Outside the gallery, a bench of 6 modular pieces offer a range of different ways to sit and talk with other visitors. Inside, portable, lightweight gallery stools provide visitors the option of lingering in front of an artwork in comfort, inviting them to reposition and move the furniture between rooms. The reception desk is transformed in the same language, morphing to fit its purpose to accommodate a laptop, a pen, a stack of flyers while the wall undulates outward providing a fitted seat to perch on.
