About Cinque Sofa
Cinque is 'n drie-sitplek-sofa wat ontwerp is vir maklike montering sonder skroewe of spykers. 'n Oorspronklike inmekaarsluitsisteem laat toe dat die sofa met die hand, so dikwels as nodig, sonder gereedskap, aanmekaargesit en uitmekaargehaal kan word. Die struktuur is gemaak van berke-vurniershout gekombineer met Fenix en gevorm deur numeries-beheerde masjinering. Die kussings is bedek met eko-leer of natuurlike handgemaakte stof. Die sofa meet 205 by 88 by 73 sentimeter, en slegs 10 sentimeter in hoogte wanneer dit uitmekaar gehaal is, sodat dit in 'n klein spasie gebêre kan word. Binne- en buiteweergawes is beskikbaar.

- Production Technology
- Birch plywood coupled with Fenix. Numerical control processing of the structure. Cushions in eco-leather and / or natural handmade fabrics.
- Design Challenge
- In addition to the conception of the interlocking system, the concept of Cinque is to demonstrate that it is possible to reduce the use of plastic and hardware for the creation of large-volume furniture.
- Research
- The aim of the project is to create a sofa that can be disassembled and reassembled without the aid of tools and hardware, eliminating the plastic in the packaging and that is recyclable. The Cinque sofa is available in both indoor and outdoor versions where it finds its maximum functionality: when in the winter the sofa has no reason to be used outdoors, it can easily be disassembled and put away, taking up minimal space.
- Inspiration
- In my removals, the sofa was the most difficult and complex piece of furniture to move. Remembering the Legos I had as a child, I wanted to make this object light, removable and not bulky.
- Project Duration
- The initial project was born in 2013 for a design competition. Exhibited at the Fuori Salone del Mobile in Milan in the same year and at the Italian Cultural Institute in Vienna on the occasion of the Design Week. It was reborn in 2021 in collaboration with a local carpentry.
- Operation Flow
- The sofa, static and bulky furniture, becomes transportable. It can be disassembled and reassembled as often as desired without the need for tools.
