About Zero Sonnenliege

Zero ist eine modulare Sonnenliege für den Außenbereich. Die Liegefläche ruht auf einem zylindrischen Träger, der die Liege ausbalanciert und zugleich ein skulpturales Element bildet. Der Zylinder ist in zwei modularen Längen erhältlich, 0,90 Meter und 1,80 Meter, sodass eine einzelne Liege oder mehrere Einheiten miteinander kombiniert werden können. Die Elemente lassen sich einander gegenüber oder auf derselben Seite anordnen und eignen sich damit für zahlreiche Anordnungen in Wohnhäusern, Hotels und Poolbereichen. Der Zylinder besteht aus massivem Cumaru-Holz, das mit einem Aluminiumkern verschraubt ist. Die geformte Aluminiumsitzfläche weist eine anatomische Wölbung für hohen Komfort auf.

The lounger was molded in aluminum, received electrostatic painting and synthetic cast canvas. The seat has an anatomical curve, which provides comfort to the user.
Design Challenge: The main challenge was to find the right and comfortable curve for the user to lie on the piece.
Research: The research took place in the main field of finding the necessary comfort and angle for the curve of the chaise, it was necessary to simulate the body in a semi-lying position to find the position, after this search for the best design, it was necessary to study the best way to structure the two pieces, the cylinder that needed a metallic soul, and the deck chair that needed reinforcement on the bottom, but in a convex shape so as not to touch the user's body and bring discomfort.
Inspiration: The simple geometry of the circle inspired the creation of this product, which was born from a free sketch. The main piece, which is a seat, rests on the tubular piece, which in addition to supporting and balancing the lounger, creates a provocative and sculptural element.
Project Duration: The project was conceived in September 2018 in São Paulo, the prototype started in September 2019 in São Paulo, being presented at the launch of the Mais 55 Design brand in São Paulo in June 2020 through a live presentation on Casa Vogue Brasil's Instagram.
Operation Flow: The main piece, which is the sun lounger, has a curve in the headboard that does not reach the floor, the piece's sustenance occurs in the fitting and support of the cylindrical piece, thus forming a harmonious set between two different materials, with different shapes.
