About Dcl Stoel
Dcl is in stoel dy't folslein makke is fan hege-tichtheid fezelplaat. Elk ûnderdiel wurdt snien mei in CNC-frees. De stoel is skildere yn in heldere effene kleur, en elke kleur kin tapast wurde. Fan in ôfstân sjoen liket Dcl hast op in kubysk blok fan effene kleur ynstee fan in stoel. It ûntwerp folget in stoelstúdzje fan de Italjaanske arsjitekt en ûntwerper Cesare Leonardi, dy't in houten model bleau en nea produsearre waard. De namme Dcl stiet foar Dopo Cesare Leonardi, wat Nei Cesare Leonardi betsjut. De stoel mjit 55 by 50 by 70 sintimeter.

Behind the Design
Press Kit
Credits, team members and technical details provided by the designer.
- Unique Properties
- It's a chair made entirely of HDF and painted with a bright solid color - any color - and looks like, when spotted, almost not a chair but a sort of a cubic block of solid massive color.
- Dimensions & Packaging
- 55 x 50 x 70 cm
- Tags
- chair, concept chair, contemporary chair, basic chair, colorful chair
- Production Technology
- HDF cut in a CNC router.
- Design Challenge
- In this particular case, there was not "a hardest part of design", which is very rare in any of my designs.
- Research
- I simply found in the internet a photo of one interesting study of chair made by the Italian architect and designer Cesare Leonardi. Since Leonardi's chair was not developed nor produced, I thought I could "devevelop it, as I was a Leonardi's team member, and started make a model of of it, changing material, changing form and proportions and making it in a more logic way, seaching for a better proportion and confort for a chair of plain HDF (Leonardi's chair was made of solid wood). The result: my chair is very basic, more logic than Leonardi's; my chair is a concept chair. DCL means Dopo Cesare Leonardi (After Cesare Leonardi).
- Inspiration
- My inspiration was a chair study made by Cesare Leonardi, an Italian architect and designer. Leonardi's chair was nothing more than a wooden model and was not developed nor produced.
- Project Duration
- The project started in May 2025 in São Paulo and finished in October 2025.
