Seating
Austrian Trade's „Future Journey: Design - Milan 08“ Visits Milan's International Furniture Fair by Wiesner-Hager
COMPOD.create inspires new types of working, and provides a marked contrast to the traditional workplace. Spontaneously and intuitively is how COMPOD.create is used. Free and easy sitting in many different positions supports the spontaneous change from concentrated work with a notebook, to leaning back and relaxing. Speaking of leaning back – the backrest may also be used as a worktop.
COMPOD, previewed at Orgatec 2004 and launched earlier this year, has challenged traditional views on breakout, lounge and collaborative furniture. Designed by Phillip Haselwander, a design graduate from FH Joanneum University in Graz, Austria, COMPOD was developed as a concept from a project sponsored by Wiesner Hager. As Haselwander himself explained, “COMPOD enhances open-minded work and communication in creative companies; it truly recognises that there are alternative ways of working that are even more valid for today’s knowledge workers.”
