Backpack Sofa refers to the demands of backpack travellers, who need options and flexibility while travelling. The representation of having options is an important theme that surfaces in many works, including the Nymphenburg Sketches (2004) and the ‘Ideal House’ installation (2005). Vitra will produce an industrial variation (in development).
