Orbit O
rbit was designed to be a comfortable space where an individual can sit Indian style. It was created with long legs in mind. Individuals can relax, work, nap, and stay comfortable. It is meant to blend in, which is why earthy materials were used. he name “Orbit” was decided because of this earthy concept. he earth revolves around the sun in an orbit, making life possible, so why not relax and enjoy it. Orbit began with the Kandinski’s Squares with Concentric Rings as inspiration. He used mostly geometric shapes in his artwork. Orbit began as a 40 inch sphere and was then cut by another sphere. All shapes used to make Orbit are geometric.
