| DESIGN NAME: CC - Cylinderchair PRIMARY FUNCTION: Chair INSPIRATION: The project reinterprets the rationalist session, giving it plasticity and sculptoriness. The evocative inspiration was the succession of colored chalks, which changing position and quantity determine different surfaces. The individual cylindrical elements can be changed as desired, allowing versatility and customization both at the production level, creating differentmodels modifying length and number of cylinders, and domestic, by removing the individual elements. UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: is a seating system where the support elements, the padding, are the protagonists: integrated into the structure, are arranged in succession to form the support components. They embrace their own metal core, give the object plasticity, transforming the support surfaces into 3D objects. The characteristic is the 'open' shape: the number and the length of the cylinders determine the shape and therefore its definition (easy chair,armchair, seat).The cushions allowe their removal and interchangeability OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: Versatility, interchangeability, simplicity. chair or armchair according to varying length and number of cylinders, component for domestic or work environments to varying colors and fabrics. These variables make CC suitable for external or internal use.

PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: Structure: iron and satin finish Cushions: density rubber 40, cotton fabric and velcro SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES: mm. 730L x 730l x 440H TAGS: versatility, flexibility, elasticity, semplicity, clarity, structured project, complex project RESEARCH ABSTRACT: The repetition of the simple and pure geometric element, declined in different sizes and quantities, generates at the same time the versatility and elasticity of the seat. The chair, pushed to the essentials by its elements, presents itself with an ‘archetypal form of the Modern’, possessing a classic character whose design is entrusted to the proportions between the elements.The only contextual element is the cushions fabrics, which can be natural or synthetic, furniture or technical, traditional or technological, colored or neutral, determining their final appearance in accordance with the spirit of the space. CHALLENGE: The cylinder was the hardest part of this design activity. The creative challenge is the complete plasticity, the transforming of the traditional support surfaces into 3D and modular objects.
