Après l’excellent meuble-module An Furniture, le studio et groupe design coréen Kamkam viennent de lancer cette collection sobrement intitulée “Dressed-Up” s’inspirant du style des vêtements du quotidien. Un style jeune et coloré à découvrir en images dans la suite.
Seoul designers KAMKAM have designed a collection of felt-covered furniture that can be fastened using buttons, belts and zips.

Called Dressed Up Furniture, the range includes a bench, cabinets and stools, which all have little areas for storage, hidden behind a felt door.
Here’s some more information from the designers:
‘Dressed up furniture series’.
This series is made up of four items, Dressed up stool, Cham, Cham bench and Belt felt.
Dressed up stool
The button on this personified stool is not just a visual effect but a new experience of extended actions such as storing, opening and closing doors.
The upholstery can be locked by the three buttons on the side and also fixed by rolling it up using a magnet when you store something inside.

The highly elastic soft sponge of upper side guarantees durability of the comfortable seat.
Cham
“Cham” is mingled with clothes in terms of functional and shape.

Seoul designers KAMKAM have created this cabinet based on the ratio of standard paper sizes.
Called An Furniture, the piece can be reconfigured or deconstructed to make separate furniture forms.
The information below is from KAMKAM:
‘KAMKAM’ means the dark, made of millions of colors is made up of three members, Hyunjin Seo, Jaekyoung Kim, Jaehoon Jung.
The recent work is ‘An Furniture’
Ax sheets (A3, A4, A5, etc) have “Golden Ratio” that promotes productivity by keeping the dimensions always (approximately) in the same ratio of width:length when they are folded in half.
Inspired by these Ax sheets, we assigned fresh sculpture of distinctive ratio to furniture, which makes the furniture economical by saving raw materials.
Since An Furniture also can be rearranged and relocated to a closet, a bookshelf, a storage cabinet and a drawer by a straightforward process, there would be no furniture better than this for single-person households.
