Twizzle Chairs

About the project

Twizzle re-imagines the form and function of public seating within our cities with an aim of counteracting the stressful and disconnected feelings which arise from living in a busy metropolis. Using accelerometer sensors these colourful swinging chairs offer a playful interaction to users by allowing them to abstractly translate their motion into a colourful, psychedelic visualisation. This interaction not only encourages people to sit down, relax and engage with the display, but also to interact with one another through a process of artistic creation and collaboration.
