Today, one of the practical pieces of furniture for children is high chairs. These chairs are designed for children under the age of 2. Typically, a significant expense is incurred in purchasing furniture sets for children, especially given the rapid physical growth of children at these ages. Such furniture has a short period of use and may either be stored in a corner of households or sold off.
In response to this issue, an effort has been made to design a modular chair that can serve multiple functions for families and remain in use for a longer duration. The modular chair includes the following components:
- Child seat with adjustable features for adult use
- Children's dining chair
- Painting and educational board
- Storage shelf for toys and child accessories
- Learning tower
All these features can be adjusted for different ages through the reconfiguration of parts, reducing significant costs and minimizing space occupation in homes.
Sustainable Design: The 'Companion' provides the opportunity to address children's needs at different ages with a single product instead of purchasing multiple items. This not only saves on household expenses but also contributes to reducing material consumption and the product's life cycle. The 'Companion' becomes an integral part of the family, living with them for many years.
Additionally, in material selection, eco-friendly materials such as wood and synthetic felt (made from recycled PET) have been used, contributing to the product's green credentials.
