Amplification of Sensation Chair

Street Furniture Design Amplification of Sensation Chair by Eun Whan Cho Amplification of Sensation is a public chair made from discarded plastic that also serves as a sculpture. The chair is installed along the promenade of the Han River in Seoul. The funnel shape surrounds the seated user and amplifies the sounds of the trees and the water. The form also frames the view and focuses attention on the surrounding landscape. The material is produced by crushing plastic waste into small pieces and molding them into the seat. The design invites citizens to rest and to consider environmental issues.
