福舟椅是一把為一座城市設計的椅子。以福州龍舟為設計原型，從形式出發，以達到對福州這座城市的標誌性文化的致意，並通過這把椅子傳遞堅韌質樸的文化內涵。

我們採用西方的設計手法，兼具東西方設計美學，簡潔而含蓄地表達出具有東方韻味的作品。整把椅子在結構上，將福州龍舟的龍頭形式抽象化，提取出椅子的扶手、坐面及靠背之間的形式關係。我們對椅子的尺度反复推敲，使其在符合人機工學理論的基礎上更加舒適。

It has always been a challenge for Ziinlife to express the traditional Chinese culture in a modern way and we completed the mission once again.

The Foochow Lounge Chair

Each city is home to unique cultural carriers.

They can be language, food, festivals or sport.

In the inland river culture of Fuzhou, dragon boat culture stands as an important part.

In Fuzhou, the city allegedly with the largest number of divinities in the country,

the dragon boat race has been blended into the distinctive folk beliefs.

Thereafter, the shape of the dragon boat head also includes other totems 

such as elephants, horses, tigers, lions, etc.

A special angle, and line, formed by the head of most totems with horns or wings,

seems to be a back and armrest of an abstract chair.

The person sitting at the head of the boat

is often the most respected spiritual leader in the team.

The rowers in the accelerated rhythm of drums and trumpets, 

bravely forge ahead for the collective honor and shared simple faith.

FooChow Chair, as a microcosm of urban culture,

is in a simple and implicit design language.

We present such a unique and unsophisticated culture through a chair,

as a tribute to the city, and we wish to integrate culture into our everyday life.
