The hallmark of this design is the harmonious relationship between concave and convex surfaces that glide into one another and which mirror in their flowing lines the likewise anything but angular human form. Pushed together, the easychairs form a unit with a circular ground plan. This creates a cosy tête-à-tête situation for two. In order to find just the right position, designer Nicolas Thomkins set dummies into his prototype. Thomkins’ sculpture studies undoubtedly aided him in developing these complex objects. The double Yin Yang chairs are reminiscent of the abstract sculptures of the 1950s, or perhaps of sand dunes or of Ice-Age boulders. And the material used can in fact withstand extreme climates: it is tearproof, colourfast, weather- and UV- resistant and naturally just as washable as the cushions placed on top. Like all other Dedon furniture, Yin Yang is woven by hand in East Asia. Made of artificial fibres measuring some four kilometres in length, this nearly two-metre-long and 30- kilogram-heavy seating element comes in matte brown and grey. The deluxe shimmering surfaces and organic proportions fit well in a variety of contexts, whether in nature or against the backdrop of modern minimalist architecture.
