TRÅD Chair by Astrid Tolnov Larsen
The ear flap chair is often set in the context of heavy upholstery furniture. This type of chair, aims to create a safe and undisturbed space in the space of the user. In this project, work has been done to create a light and open construction that preserves the good and safe qualities of the ear flap chair. The frame of the chair is designed so that the user is lifted away from the cold metal construction. In this way, the user’s body is only in contact with the chair’s hot materials -hearing flagline and oil treated ash.
Update:
Some people seem not to believe you can sit in the chair. Therefor I add Astrid herself seated in the very chair:

Dear Astrid, you have made an object that looks like a chair.
One of my first chairs was a bit similar.
And why not if that was your intention.
If not, sit in it now and then, and brainstorm!
Not to be used, should stand on a base. Robert –
