KRYB is a modular seating system that explores and questions traditional upholstery techniques and the expectations for a seating furniture.
How can we reduce material and resource consumption in an upholstery furniture without compromising function, comfort and durability? Do we need to redefine our basic understanding of what makes us comfortable and feel good when interacting with furniture?
KRYB takes the whole value chain into account:
Sourcing - Materials can be sourced from existing recycled material streams or from renewable sources.
Production - All parts are designed for minimal processing, optimal production and resource usage. Tubular geometry and knitted textile leave no cut offs or production waste.
Use - The dynamic and flexible design allows for the user to easily compose and adjust usage to minimize wear and tear and adapt to function and space. In the same way components and elements can be replaced, added or refurbished in order to prolong life in the use phase.
Recycling - KRYB is designed for disassembly and recycling – no glue or mixing of materials.
Everything can be recycled in the same material streams and kept in the loop.
