Inspired by cultural motif chintemani and worldwide used ottomans named after its birth place, the idea of combination and syntesis of both was born. Chinte ottoman can be produced in countless different colour combinations, in different sizes and from many different materials from marble to wood for the innermost part and for the rest from fabric to felt and leather. Due to its sectional mechanism, it can be used seperately if needed. The innermost part made of wood or fabric provides storage space inside for magazines, books etc or scattered things around that should be quickly out of sight.
