| DESIGN NAME: Delirios PRIMARY FUNCTION: Armchair INSPIRATION: Delirios came from the desire to experiment with digital technologies together with artisanal methods, in order to unite technological advances with the Brazilian cultural legacy. The name Delirios was chosen as a tribute to Flavio de Carvalho, the Brazilian artist who mixed in his creations design, painting, performances, set design and architecture as powerful social criticism. UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Delirios is an armchair that uses both craftwork and digital ways of production, and comes from an attempt to unite digital to analog and technology to essencial Brazilian culture. Its basis was digitally designed using parametric waffle programming, a type of 3D modeling that creates a flow structure made with fittings. This structure was digitally made by CNC in certified wood pieces, while the backrest and seat are made from craftwork production. OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: The basis of the armchair is digitally designed using parametric programming and built through the fittings of the cut laminated wood pieces. The backrest subtly rests on the wooden structure, which touches the floor through four supports, also subtly and lightly. A super comfortable armchair with a unique design. PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: The Delirios Armchair was presented at the launch of the Mais55 Design brand in Sao Paulo in June 2020. FITS BEST INTO CATEGORY: Furniture Design |
PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: Mixing analog and digital, the basis in multi-laminated wood was designed using parametric programming so that the structure could be fluid and fixed by fittings. The fabrication of the structure was made from CNC. While the upholstered rests by the basis in a light and subtle way, the basis touches the floor through four points of support, also lightly. SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES: 950 mm x 1140 mm x 1040 mm Certified multi-laminated wood basis; Upholstery available in leather, wool, thread or cotton.
