WASSILY ROOM
Emilio González
Wassily Room is a project conceived around Marcel Breuer's B3 chair, also known as Wassily Chair. The room is designed around the distinctive aspects of the chair and its context. The contrast of textures, colors, and materials, as well as the sense of structural heft combined with visual levity, is embodied within the four walls that enclose the room. The Wassily Chair is the centerpiece of a scene meant for reading and reflecting where multiple art and design icons interact, creating a space that allows for cultural appreciation and mental freedom.
