MUNIN

Munin is designed in collaboration with Farstrup Furniture. The chair is a rocking chair, but can also be bought without the rocking mechanism. The effect of subtle movements in a chair is proved to have great impact on people who have dementia, are mentally or physically restless or anxious. The big screen encloses the person sitting in the chair and creates a peaceful and undisturbed moment.
Music and movement are some of the most basic things we can remember during dementia disease, which brings joyful and enlightening moments.
Munin means "mind" in English and "memory" in Danish. Munin is one of Odins ravens in Nordic mythology, providing him memory of the world, where the raven Hugin gives him reflection.
