Venus Cradle Furniture by Golnoush Zamani and Hajar Shahsavari Venus is a multi-purpose furniture piece that works as both a sofa and a cradle. The oval structure is made of wood cut by a CNC machine, filled with 60 mm upholstery foam and covered with fabric. A plywood fence can be turned down to protect the baby. A cushion with stethoscope technology lets the mother hear the heartbeat of the fetus during pregnancy. Venus supports rest, feeding and sleep for a mother and a child up to five years old. The form is inspired by ancient Iranian clay statues of the Neolithic era.
