PRODUCT: We are creating a chair that portrays sophistication, serenity, peacefulness, softness and femininity. Our chair transmits the empowering but femininity of a woman. At plain sight we see the softness and comfort that it portrays. TARGET: Our target audience are women in the ages of 33-45. They are metropolitan business women that have their life settled and are probably in a high position in their companies. They live in a high end and wealthy environment. Our target lives in big cities and are interested in fashion and they look for something classy and practical. Our typical woman appreciates the good things in life and she doesn't mind spending a little bit more in furniture. SPECIFIC TARGET: Gianna is a 38 year old fashion designer that lives in London. She has been working in the Fashion industry for almost 12 years now. She lives a busy life in between her work, clients and making sure she stays in shape.

Description: A project whose origins lie in the search for meticulous and wellbalanced comfort, restrained yet with a nod to exaggeration. Gentry is about tradition, distinction and belonging but brave enough to gently poke fun at the negative connotations of ‘bourgeois’. Above all the sofa communicates a way-of-being, a sensitive approach to finding the right balance between discipline and freedom. The large independent seat- and back-cushions mean that the sofa is comfortable when the user sits up properly but that it is also great for lounging around on, and forgetting about “good manners”. page 1k
