Graduation Project
Split Personality – et siddeobjekt med personlighedsspaltning
1 MØBEL
2 PERSONLIGHEDER
MANGE MULIGHEDER
Kravene til et siddemøbel er i dag mange og mere end blot at sidde komfortabelt.
Møblet skal tiltrække brugeren med sin æstetik og udtrykke en bestemt holdning
til livet der er med til at fortælle noget om vores personlighed eller hvordan vi
gerne vil opfattes.
Split Personality er udviklet med udgangspunkt i to modsatrettede personlighedstyper
der netop ved deres forskellighed supplerer hinanden og giver møblet mange
anvendelsesmuligheder. Formen og det tekstile udtryk er udviklet i samspil og det er
netop i mødet mellem tekstil og møbel, at Split Personality træder i karakter.

Split Personality – a sitting object with split personality
1 FURNITURE
2 PERSONALITIES
MANY POSSIBILITIES
The requirements for furniture today are increasing and are certainly more than just a
requirement for sitting comfortably. The furniture has to attract the user with it’s aesthetics
and express a certain take on life that helps tell a story about our own personalities and
how we want to be viewed by others.
Split Personality has been created based on two opposite types of personalities.
The nature of their differences supplement each other and give the furniture a wide range
of applications. The shape and the textile expression has been created in unison,
and it is exactly in the meeting of the textile and the shape of the furniture where
the Split Personality really comes into character.
