︎︎︎Description
“Ha-Wai-Yeez” is a series of seating structures that feature a fake or even zero frontal views.

The first iteration is a simple chair made of a two-piece peach alabaster stone assembly. One would find it so hard to depict it orthographically as the piece seems willing to spin endlessly. The second iteration is a bench assembled of multiple identical stools. Through rotation, hinge, and shared edges, the bench intrigues one with plausible orientations and unpredictable sitting approaches.
