Panda System
Monica Förster
Monica Förster's Panda System goes beyond ordinary seating. Its softly sculpted forms and modular versatility empower users to craft dynamic workspaces that adapt to every need. From collaborative hubs to private retreats, Panda offers flexibility by seamlessly incorporating chaise longues, privacy screens, and integrated tables for breakout lounge settings, or take it a step further by creating configurations with working height surfaces for individual drop in focus spaces or meeting booths.
Embrace healthy and natural materials with the foam-free option, made with coconut fibre and needled wool, over a flexible steel spring support. All configurations of Panda are constructed with a sustainably sourced Spruce plywood, a faster growing species than the more commonly used Beech plywood. Spruce is also lighter, making it less carbon hungry in all its transportation phases and the plywood used contains 50% bio-binder, resulting in less than half the embodied carbon of typical hardwood ply, further reducing embodied impacts.
Designed for breakout and lounge spaces, atriums and receptions, Panda System is a versatile and classic design of quality built to last.
