Jamirang Sofas by Bora Kim
Korean artist revolutionized the interior design market with his unique Jamirang sofas. These minimalist creations left all connoisseurs in awe due to both their perfectly cut shape and outstanding level of comfort provided.
The individual sofas were designed bearing in mind the proportions of the human body and the most natural position one would assume while seated. Hence, the concept behind these strikingly austere pieces of furniture was to ease back tension and maximize well-being. However, Bora Kim did not base his idea solely upon physical needs; he also aspired to come up with an avant-garde construction. For the sake of innovation and originality, he strived to keep the lines of the cushion as clean and fluid as possible, aiming for an obvious contrast with the rigidness induced by the stretched legs of the low-base chair.
Further, despite the stiff appearance, the pad is set to assure the guest with an utmost feeling of relaxation due to a thorough selection of the outer fabric meant to enhance the snugness of the inner material. As the creator itself likes to point out, the bolster was conceived as an invitation to ‘falling asleep, with sleep’, which is what actually Ja-mi-rang means in Korean.
The Jamirang sofa is considered to be the leading-edge among the newest concepts in interior decorating, as experts in the field unanimously praise both the design and the utility of this odd looking piece of furniture!
