"In a collaboration with my father Dr. Sribyatta, to reconstruct a chair special to his childhood. The process was to use the recognizable materials and techniques; however, allow the fluidity of playful modern lifestyles to generate patterns and color to the chair." - Bannavis Andrew Sribyatta Candy chair

Even in my most daring dream I couldn’t have imagine a giant ear muff you could sit in and listen to loud music without anyone bugging you. Well, maybe that’s why there are awarded designers. Holger Fritzlar and the designatics (Frank Hussong, Michael Kientzler and Daniela Reuter) must have thought at me when building the sonic chair (just kidding).

The Sonic Chair allows you to sit at the very centre of a sound system adapted to your ears. The sound insulation creates an acoustic island: what you choose to listen to is hardly perceptible beyond the chair and background noises will not disturb your listen to music/audio book, either. The outside upholstery is made of top-grade leather in four basic colors: orange, green, pink and beige.
