Sit into Sound
The UNDINE [ʊnˈdiːnə] furniture series fuses premium cotton fabrics with high-fidelity audio technology. The SEAT is crafted to serve as a loudspeaker, turning the entire chair into a intimate sound system. When seated, your body is enveloped in a symbiotic relationship with UNDINE, enabling you to not only hear the rich, immersive sound but also feel its resonant vibrations.
This setup offers a deeply immersive sound experience, isolating the listener from their surroundings and creating a personal sound bubble. High and mid frequencies sound best when you listen closely, while lower frequencies you can feel throughout your body. It is a unique way to enjoy music, movies, voice recordings, video games, and meditation.
Just like in the myth of Undine, a water nymph who gains a soul by connecting with a human, the design of this chair is meant to closely connect with our bodies, enhancing the overall experience.
Designed by Axel Schindlbeck, Undine makes its debut this year and underlines Schindlbecks ongoing commitment to innovative design.
Developed together with and inspired by the work of sound alchemist Pierre-Laurent Cassiere, Marseille.
