I set out to link the physical tennis ball with some other practical uses tied to it. Tennis balls have often been used as a massage element, or physio aid, which inspired me to create a visual representation of the high impact sport, juxtaposed to the rehabilitative properties linked to the tennis ball.

The clean, flowing lines of the chair seamlessly join the fast paced sport of tennis with the mental calm that comes from performing in the flow state. It is also a lovely way to sit in the sun and enjoy an ice cold lemonade.
