The Seeding Chair 育苗椅

Concept
The farmers on Lanyang Plain use to dedicated on the rice farming because of the sufficient rain drop. They also breed ducks in the farm to help
get rid of pest. The feces from ducks can also fertilize the farm. Hence, the smoked duck meet is also a famous dish in Yilan. Furthermore, among
on the farming process, the seedling is one crucial stage like the character buliding stage in the childhood. 
 
However, the primitive and beautiful country landscape has been endangered by enormous investors from other big city like Taipei. Inspired by
the current issue, farming process and landscape of Yilan, we would like to use the rolling rice seedlings which piled up beside the farms as a symbolism of new hope seedling in kid’s education and raising their attention about their homeland. 
 
Making use of the feature of rolling rice seedlings, our design allow children to transform the construction of the stool by their imaginations which may stand as stool or pave as platform. Parents could also lead their children to get familiar with their hometown by helping assembling those
well-known landscape of Lanyang Plain.
