Ceragem Master S4 was designed with a focus on spatial harmony and ergonomic support, embracing Ceragem’s relaxation catchphrase of ‘Health & Interior’. The design reinterprets the heater and transforms the conventional stool into a heating device. By integrating and minimizing exposed parts, the structural characteristics create new forms that seamlessly blend furniture and health devices, enhanced by captivating colors and textures.
Users often hesitate to purchase heating devices due to their visible mechanical elements that could disrupt interior design. To address this, the designers identified the key elements that users value and explored categories that could seamlessly integrate with heating devices, leading them to the concept of ‘furniture’. Their goal was to design a piece of furniture that promotes relaxation while also serving as a medical device, embodying Ceragem’s design philosophy of ‘Simple & Perfection’. Through the skillful combination of different fabrics, furniture CMF (Color, Material, Finish), and user-centric UX/UI, they successfully created a device that not only harmonizes with interior designs but also functions as both furniture and a heater.
Master S4 features seamless design language applied within modern furniture design concepts. In order to ensure luxurious cushioning within the furniture form, rounded curves were applied to the chair’s molded foam shapes to stimulate that super cozy feeling. In addition, the design team also devised a furniture-style heating device that can be applied in various interior environments by hiding normally externally visible remote controls, zip lines, and waterproof fabrics and unifying the CMF to match the weave of the fabric so that its complex components are integrated and displayed seamlessly.
To ensure the usability of the heating device, the designers also have devised a new workflow to utilize the sofa support and upper cushioning so that the product can be used simply without additional accessories.
