About Madison Loungebank
Madison is 'n loungebank wat ontwerp is om tot drie volwassenes te huisves. Die raam is gemaak van soliede Duitse beukehout met silindriese roestvrystaal-stutte, en die sitplek is bekleed met hoëdigtheidskuim. Pen-en-gat-verbindings bied sterkte, terwyl die skuins pote en die smal sitplek 'n ligte voorkoms skep. Toetsing het bevestig dat die bank tot 300 kilogram in daaglikse gebruik kan dra. Die bank meet 1300 mm in wydte, 450 mm in diepte en 370 mm in hoogte. Die vorm herroep motorontwerp van die laat 1950's en pas by hedendaagse interieurs.

- Production Technology
- Built in solid German Beech wood, with stainless steel cylindrical supports and upholstered with high density foam. The joint system is mortise and tenon, using Italian high end machinery.
- Design Challenge
- To achieve a visual lightness on the structure, without losing resistance.
- Research
- The design of the joinery and the angles of the structure were studied and tested carefully so that this piece could withstand daily use and up to 300 kg of weight without breaking. 4 prototypes were built.
- Inspiration
- Part of the Cosmic collection inspired on the cars around 1959. The angle of the legs resembles a rising rocket, and the upholstered surface seems to float upon four metal cylinders that supports it, providing the illusion of an airplane wing. The collection expresses modernism and the spatial idealism present in the early 60's, with a modern and renovated twist that provides a contrast to the upholstery which makes it suitable in almost any contemporary style.
- Project Duration
- This project took 10 weeks from the first sketches to the final prototype for mass production, made in the laboratory and prototype design in Mérida, Yucatán, México.
- Operation Flow
- These lightweight forms provide sufficient strength and size to accommodate up to three adults, sitting without a problem and at the same time it is easy to carry and move.
