In a market saturated with immediately readable objects, Tenkai takes the opposite direction. Designed for PROA21's CounterCOOLtural brief, the chair challenges the assumption that furniture must be instantly understood. The strategic insight: objects that demand attention create a different kind of relationship with their owner. Tenkai's origami-inspired geometry — a system of triangular planes that shift with perspective — turns the act of sitting into a moment of discovery. You have to stop, look, and understand it before you can use it.
