It Untwerp

Oer Nimbus Earmstoel, Ottomane

Nimbus is in set fan earmstoel en ottomane, ûntwurpen foar wenynterieurs. It ûntwerp is ynspirearre troch de lichtens fan wolken en kombinearret sêfte, bekluede foarmen mei in krekte houten struktuer. De earmleunings en it ûnderstel binne makke fan massyf jakarandahout, foarme mei soarchfâldich houtferbiningswurk foar duorsumens. Skomrubber yn lagen mei hege tichtens en elastyske singels soargje foar ergonomysk komfort. De ottomane is multyfunksjoneel en kin tsjinje as fuottebank, ekstra sitplak of kompakte bytafel as der in ôfnimber houten blêd op set wurdt. De set bringt ambachtlike detaillearring yn skaalbere yndustriële produksje.

High-density foam and elastic webbing provide ergonomic comfort, while all elements are designed for efficient manufacturing without losing refined artisanal detailing.
Untwerpútdaging
The main challenge in developing Nimbus was achieving structural durability while preserving its soft, cloud-inspired volume. Research focused on ergonomic proportions, material resistance and foam performance under prolonged use. A layered seat system combining elastic webbing and differentiated foams was tested to balance weight support and comfort. The final structure ensures stability, longevity and visual lightness without compromising tactile softness.
Undersyk
Nimbus was developed through research on emotional design, ergonomic seating, and multifunctional furniture for compact living. The process included sketch exploration, proportion studies, and material testing with wood and upholstery to achieve softness and structural clarity. User comfort, visual lightness, and adaptability were key outcomes, resulting in a refined seating system for contemporary interiors.
Ynspiraasje
Nimbus was inspired by the idea of visual lightness translated into structural solidity. The design contrasts soft, enveloping volumes with a precise wooden base, creating balance between comfort and architectural clarity. It explores the dialogue between handcrafted expression and industrial feasibility, bringing artisanal warmth into scalable contemporary production.
Projektdoer
The Nimbus Armchair and Ottoman were designed and developed between 2025 and 2026 in Vila Velha/ES, Brazil, at Simone Villéla Atelier. The collection was later executed in Bento Goncalves/ RS, Brazil in partnership with Voltoni, combining authorial design research with industrial craftsmanship. The project reflects a contemporary approach to comfort, sculptural form, and production-ready furniture for modern interiors.
