Furniture Design Soul Chair by Wen Jenq Cherng The overall design for Chair of Soul is focused on its function, where the user would sit upright on the chair and his/her upper-body weight be perfectly supported through the height of the chair, the backrest at the waist, and the armrests. The designer has long been practicing meditation for destressing and calming the body and mind, and hoping the design of the chair could reflect a completely relaxed condition for the body.
