Macaron Chair

Macaron is a decorative and functional piece of furniture. Reflected in the name, the sweet and feminine qualities of the French dessert macaron became my inspiration. Like the dessert, the cream-filled sandwiched or, in this case, the scrunched-up layer between the shell is an essential part of the whimsical appearance. The tender and chewy center also inspired me to incorporate a hollow center that creates the physical motion of sinking into the chair.
