The Design

About Cecilia Tugitool

Cecilia on tugitool, mis on valmistatud taaskasutatud ja ära visatud materjalidest. Konstruktsioon on ehitatud ülejäänud puidust pressitud liistudest, mis on kujundatud laiade jalgade ja avara istmega, et saaks kasutada lühikesi jääke. Seljatugi on moodustatud väikestest ülejäänud kangatükkidest, mis on seotud painduvale alusele, mille sees on vaht, luues pehme mahu ja lisamugavuse. Iste on valmistatud äravisatud nahast, millele saab lisada paike ja detaile, nii et iga tugitool on ainulaadne. Madal ja kaldu vorm kutsub puhkama ning järgib Skandinaavia stiili.

Production Technology
Structure in pressed pieces of wood from reuse, Backseat a flexible base where small pieces of fabric were tied with a foam inside, and seat made by leather.
Design Challenge
The challenge was to use left over fabric for the backseat and left over wood for the structure. For the backseat we used a flexible base where small pieces of fabric were tied, creating an aesthetic volume an comfort while in use. For the structure, I designed larger feet and seat, that allowed me to use left over wood slats pressed.
Research
The research was made about types of sustainable and recycled materials, that could work in an aesthetic and functional way.
Inspiration
Inspired on the scandinavian style and with sustainable solutions, the armchair is a tribute to my grandmother, who was in love with handmade works, reflected on the backseat. She also loved nature and was short, that is why the armchair was made in a sustainable way and its design is lower, thought to be easier to use, welcoming and comfortable.
Project Duration
Started in November 2019 in Sao Paulo and finished in january 2020 in Santa Catarina.
Operation Flow
A lower armchair, made of comfortable materials to rest.
