Våga A vertical surface turns into a comfortable chair by the body weight of its user and due to gravity of the earth. By just leaning against the surface, it will transform into a chair with different angle modes depending of the way and power the user moves her body. The Swedish name “våga” is a verb for both dare and balance. It refers to the users need to rely on the construction by leaning with full body weight, but also to the users possibility to decide the mode and characteristic of the chair by balancing back and forward. The chair starts to exist when a person uses it. Construction (mm)
