Thought Bubble’s extraordinary form came at the behest of Chotipatoomwan’s mentor Nathan Yong. ‘He suggested that, because this project is worldwide, it would be good to put a bit of your own culture into it. The first thing that came to my mind was the triangular pillow. In Thailand, people sit, gather around and have a social conversation, or eat and relax around the object. I wanted to take that and transform it into a rocking chair. I created this piece to help users transit from one state of mind to another. From outside, into your own thought bubble.’
