Cornnie is a seating series designed for corner spaces. The series has three pieces that measure 1200 by 700 by 850 millimetres when placed together. Each seat is made of bendable plywood, glued and pressed on a mould milled by a CNC machine. Curved legs link each seat to the corner and suggest new ways to use the space. Cornnie lets users rest in corner areas and create a relatively personal space there without building a wall between each other. The intent is to offer a calm place to retreat within open shared environments.
