FF1
FOX & FREEZE, established in 2009, is a creative collaboration between 2 Belgian designers, James Van Vossel and Tom De Vrieze. Vos (from James Van Vossel) stands for Fox and Vrieze (from Tom De Vrieze) represents Freeze.
FF1, the outcome from this cooperation, is an indoor lounge chair made out of 1 square sheet of synthetic felt. There is no loss of material, with the exception of the drilled holes. The structure itself is self-supporting which means it does not need a wood or metal base. The flax rope pulls the chair together and finishes the final shape of the design. The shell and base are not separated from the leaf, but remain connected. Starting from a square, the felt board is twisted and turned back, like a scarf, ending in a functional asymmetrical object.
FF1 is sent with bpost, Belgium’s leading postal operator.
