Sculptural Design Elements
The standout feature of Owen is its extraordinary sculptural backrest that elegantly folds onto itself, reminiscent of a Möbius strip. This mathematical precision translated into furniture form creates a continuous surface that seamlessly transitions from backrest to armrest, demonstrating both artistic vision and functional innovation.
