Cushions

In order to interiorise the see-saws, we will have cushions on either end- to contribute to the reinterpretation and expectation of the see-saw as a rough-and-ready outdoor playing object for kids. Fully furnishing the see-saws will make it something more sophisticated an object which adults may also even play on- thus breaking down divisions between adults and children within the family.

Cushion ideas

 

Final cushion designs

 

There will be three different cushion styles- which we have referred to as the lips, sandwich and band- each of these styles will be in a square shape and circular shape. There will then be three different colours, with a total of two cushions in each colour. These colours will give the cushions a playful quality. Two square cushions will have a button, and the same for two circular cushions.

 

The cushions will be attached to the wood by the use of velcro strips.
