Design Carousel is an interactive installation created for Zagreb Design Week. Conceived as a journey through design history, it features five iconic chairs: Ton No. 30 (1859), Zig Zag (1934), Tulip (1956), Mezzadro (1957), and Panton (1967). Each represents a milestone in furniture design, inviting visitors to reflect on how objects shape both culture and everyday experience.
At Brigada, spatial design is not just about form it’s about experience. For Zagreb Design Week, we developed Design Carousel, an analogue and interactive installation that engages the body, emotion, and memory without the use of digital layers.
The installation takes the form of a carousel that guides visitors through five milestones in furniture design: Ton No. 30 (1859), Zig Zag (1934), Tulip (1956), Mezzadro (1957), and Panton (1967).
Each chair reflects the spirit of its time, carrying cultural and aesthetic values of its era, yet they all share a universal function to offer a place for pause, rest, and reflection.
By inviting people not only to observe but to sit, move, and interact, Design Carousel transforms the act of engaging with design into a playful, embodied experience.
Within Brigada’s philosophy of shaping space and creating experience, the project turns history into presence, proving that design is best understood when it is lived, felt, and shared.
