CHAIRVILLE - This is a reflection of human behaviour in public spaces and an investigation into how we can affect a meeting scenario depending on the way we arrange the furniture in a room. Chairville is an invitation into different social situation symbolised by chairs and carpets. The constillations were design for a project with Scandic Hotels and was part of a concept for new ways of meeting in a conference environment.

These groups of chairs and carpets are designed for the coffeebreak, the informal meeting room. They are a playful approach to highlight human acts. By interacting with the groups the users are pushed into situations that normally might not have happened in our social limitations.
