Who is Kenny you might ask?
Kenny, by Yael Mer and Shay Alkalay of Raw Egdes for Moroso, is a rounded curvaceous armchair that is made out of single linear strips of fabric that are folded to create a volumetric shape that becomes like a cocoon in which one can sit in. This design speaks of simplicity and geometry.
The designers used Kvadrat Hallingdal 65 textile known as a 'warp and woof' fabric where two different coloured yarns are woven perpendicular to each other. When one pulls out the warp, which is the longitudinal thread in a roll, more of the woof's colour is exposed. This effect creates a linear graphic that emphasizes the shape and geometry of Kenny.
