The exhibition Maarten Van Severen .03 fits into this intention.
Using various models, prototypes, drawings and photographs, the development of the .03, the chair with which Maarten Van Severen gained international acclaim, is outlined.

The Puppo Chair by Mladen Milosevic and Vuk Dragovic

The PUPPO chair is intended for interiors with a smaller surface area. Target customers are young people who wish to save on the space in their living areas. Students, for example, would be able to save a lot of space in their dorms, while still having several pieces of furniture all in one, depending on their needs. In just a couple of steps, the PUPPO chair transforms from a chair into a small table or footrest, or even a box that can be used for storage or making life easier when moving into another dorm.
