An article from Dnevnik describes a seven-meter-long inflatable chair developed by the Lufta studio team—Matic Hlede, Jan Jandl, and Lin Martin Japelj—as part of a three-year research project exploring new uses for inflatable materials. The design was initially inspired by the need to increase usable space on sailing yachts but shifted focus to home furnishings after challenges in the yacht industry. The team highlights the technical advantages of their 'drop-stitch' technology, which allows for rigid, flat surfaces and high durability, making the material suitable for furniture. The chair is currently being showcased at the Center Rog in Ljubljana.
Bias read (Center): The article focuses on a creative design and technological innovation in the field of inflatable materials, with no overt political commentary or ideological framing. It presents the development process and technical aspects objectively, without leaning toward any particular political stance.
