Design Outcome

Inspired by Thai Folklore

Poo-Marn Ya-Marn, A painting of Phoomin temple in Nan, is a image of a man and

woman whispering. This was called as Krasib-Bunlue Lok. This picture represent the context of man and women in the past. By touching each others, People interpret them as a spouses because there are only husband and wife can touch each other.

But the time pass, the context of behavior changes and also in sexual diversity ,2 people being together doesn't always a couple. So these make a question that can we create a context that can ice-breaks people in order to make them being together with whatever they are.  By creating a chair which represents the issues of being together in nowadays context, this chair designed for only 2 people can sit on it. Take time together on this chair. No matter who you come with, finding your answer, maybe the answer is furthermore than who you are sitting with.
