This armchair is actually made up of 3 separate chairs stacked together

Designed for people who enjoy solitary life but also love entertaining guests, the Social Chair by Yvonne Hung explores a new way to stack furniture. The chair’s design looks like a quirky armchair but look closer and you’ll see that each armrest is in fact a part of a separate chair. Disassemble the Social Chair and you’ve got one chair that turns into three separate seating devices for you and your guests! Dock them back and they come together to form one single armchair yet again! It’s lovely how Yvonne Hung has developed a method of making chairs useful even when they’re stacked into each other. A great addition to small homes in highly populated cities!
