"AquaForma is a transformable furniture piece designed under the theme 'Conflict: Human vs Nature,' exploring how everyday objects can save lives during flooding."
"In its default configuration, AquaForma functions as low-profile floor seating, but it can be reconfigured into a flotation device when flooding occurs."
"The piece uses modular panels and a ratchet buckle mechanism, allowing it to be adjusted and secured depending on the required configuration."
AquaForma is a transformable furniture piece created by Domus Academy Milano students, designed to address the increasing vulnerability of homes to flooding. Initially appearing as a low-profile chair, it can be reconfigured into a flotation device using modular panels and buoyant materials. The design features a ratchet buckle mechanism that allows for adjustments and secure configurations. This innovative approach aims to provide a practical solution for households facing the realities of climate change and flooding.
