1/6

Solution

The idea behind the whole was, to produce a exclusive product with an unusual material.


Product = rocking chair
Material = concrete/lightweight concrete

The result was the Rocking Chair made ??of concrete.

The focus of the concept is on the following:
The really stiff and uncomfortable concrete is transformed in movable and comfortable rocking chair. The result is an robust and long-lived outdoor furniture. The special feature is that the rocking chair as easily be put in motion, like his ancestors out of wood.

Through the lightweight concrete, the weight is reduced by a factor of five and so the rocking chair can be set up in the garden at home easily.

Since the weight is variable, heavier variants are possible, which can be placed, for example, in public spaces.

Which problem is solved by this idea?

My idea deals with the problem that someone should be based not only on conventional approaches.

How does your idea solve the problem?

The problem is solved with concrete. For the most part concrete is a coarse and rigid material used on building sites. With my product I established that concrete can also have other properties. In this case, comfort, and especially the quality of movement.

What's the benefit for the target group?

The rocking chair made ??of concrete is not a typical outdoor rocking chair. The material is very long-lived and robust. The rocking chair can spend the winter in the garden. He is suitable for public space because the variable weight makes him secure against theft.

What could be the perfect event to implement your approach/object?

The rocking chair is perfect to relax in peace.

How many guests can participate in your outdoor dinner?

The rocking chair is for one person. If you have some more rocking chairs, you will be able to relax with your friends.
