Mimetic Baby Chair
My theory was ‘’Mimetic Desire’’ and man is the creature who does not know what to desire, and he turns to others in order to make up his mind. We desire what others desire because we imitate their desires. And also imitation is the basic mechanism of learning. I started by thinking that babies learn the most by imitation. So I designed a baby chair and while I was designing, I placed a screen in front of the chair that would show what the baby was asked to do in the chair and be expected to imitate the vision. For example, if the baby is asked to eat broccoli, he or she can easily eat the broccoli by seeing a baby eating broccoli on the screen and imitating it. In addition, the chair was designed as a multi-functinal chair that can be opened as shown in the images and adapted for adult use.
