Exo Chair: A Fusion of Modern Art and Functionality

Svilen Gamolov's Award-Winning Design Marries Minimalism and Comfort

Exo, a minimalist chair designed by Svilen Gamolov, is a stunning example of how contemporary sculpture and origami philosophy can inspire functional design. This award-winning piece, lauded for its unique properties and aesthetic appeal, is set to redefine modern interiors.

Svilen Gamolov, a renowned Bulgarian designer, has always been inspired by the clean, minimalistic shapes and lines found in contemporary sculpture and the philosophy of origami. His latest creation, the Exo chair, is a testament to this inspiration. The chair, with its pure lines and minimalistic modern sculpture-like design, fits smoothly into any interior environment while remaining a unique subject of design.

The Exo chair is not just about aesthetics; it is also designed for use in modern interiors. It complies with the basic design standards that guarantee durability and comfort. The chair is made of sturdy steel construction, lightweight plywood, and quality upholsters. It is available in a wide range of fresh color combinations, allowing it to blend seamlessly into any decor.

The Exo chair was created in Varna, Bulgaria, and is reserved for production by the F2 Furniture company in Sofia, Bulgaria. The chair's production started towards the end of 2017 and it hit the market in 2018. The design process was a result of extensive research into current trends in furniture production, technologies, and design, and was developed in close cooperation with the engineering team of F2.

Despite the challenges that come with creating a functional beauty intended to serve well and please people, Gamolov's design has been well-received. The Exo chair was awarded Platinum in the A' Furniture Design Award in 2018, recognizing it as a world-class, exceptional, and highly innovative design that contributes to societal wellbeing. The award is given to designs that advance the boundaries of art, science, design, and technology, exhibiting transcendent excellence and making the world a better place.

In conclusion, the Exo chair is a perfect blend of form and function. Its minimalist design, inspired by contemporary sculpture and origami philosophy, coupled with its sturdy construction and comfort, make it a standout piece in any modern interior. With its recognition as a Platinum A' Furniture Design Award winner, the Exo chair is set to become a defining aesthetic of this era.
