韓國設計師製作"擁抱沙發" 治癒獨處孤單

South Korean designer Lee Eun-kyoung designed a sofa which hugs people, enabling the lonely one feels the warmth of embrace.

近日，韓國設計師李恩景設計了一款"擁抱沙發"，讓獨處的人也能感受擁抱的溫暖。

It enables people to recreate the feeling they get from having a cuddle with parent, friend or lover, according to the 28-year-old fine arts graduate from Hongik University in Seoul.

這名畢業於韓國首爾弘益大學美術學專業的28歲的設計師表示，這種設計讓人們感受到和父母、朋友或者愛人抱在一起的溫暖。

She said: 'People feel lonely when they are by themselves. The sofas are flexible and free, users can wind the arms around themselves after they sit on the sofa. Because of that, the extension arms have the effect of providing the stability to users to have a comfortable and relaxing time.'

她說：“人在獨處的時候會感覺孤獨。這款沙發靈活且自由，使用者可以在坐上去之後，可以用它的手臂擁抱自己。正是由於這個原因，沙發的伸展臂有提供穩定的效果，爲用戶提供一個舒適和放鬆的時間。”

The sofa, which is in a round shape and made from a bending sponge type material, took 18 months to make before being unveiled at a design awards show.

沙發由一種彎曲海綿狀材料製成，主體爲圓形。製作沙發用時達到18個月，將在一次設計大賽上正式揭曉。

It is not currently available for sale but Lee plans on trying to sell some in colours such as white, grey, pink and red.

該沙發目前尚未公開出售，不過李恩景希望出售時能有更多顏色選擇，比如白色、灰色、粉色和紅色。

She said children can play on them, using the arms as a slide, while the arms can also act as a laptop pad.

她說，孩子們可以在上邊玩，沙發的“手臂”可以成爲孩子們的滑梯，也可以作爲一個筆記本電腦墊。
