About Cinque Tolg

Is tolg trí shuíochán é Cinque atá deartha le haghaidh tionóil éasca gan scriúanna ná tairní. Ligeann córas eiteallaithe bunaidh don tolg a chur le chéile agus a bhaint óna chéile de láimh, chomh minic agus is gá, gan uirlisí. Tá an struchtúr déanta as sraithadhmad beithe in éineacht le Fenix agus múnlaithe trí mheaisínéireacht uimhriúil rialaithe. Tá na piliúir clúdaithe le heicilathair nó le fabraicí nádúrtha lámhdhéanta. Tomhaiseann an tolg 205 faoi 88 faoi 73 ceintiméadar, agus níl ann ach 10 gceintiméadar ar airde nuair a bhaintear as a chéile é, sa chaoi is gur féidir é a stóráil i spás beag. Tá leaganacha do lasmuigh agus do lasmuigh ar fáil.

Production Technology
Birch plywood coupled with Fenix. Numerical control processing of the structure. Cushions in eco-leather and / or natural handmade fabrics.
Design Challenge
In addition to the conception of the interlocking system, the concept of Cinque is to demonstrate that it is possible to reduce the use of plastic and hardware for the creation of large-volume furniture.
Research
The aim of the project is to create a sofa that can be disassembled and reassembled without the aid of tools and hardware, eliminating the plastic in the packaging and that is recyclable. The Cinque sofa is available in both indoor and outdoor versions where it finds its maximum functionality: when in the winter the sofa has no reason to be used outdoors, it can easily be disassembled and put away, taking up minimal space.
Inspiration
In my removals, the sofa was the most difficult and complex piece of furniture to move. Remembering the Legos I had as a child, I wanted to make this object light, removable and not bulky.
Project Duration
The initial project was born in 2013 for a design competition. Exhibited at the Fuori Salone del Mobile in Milan in the same year and at the Italian Cultural Institute in Vienna on the occasion of the Design Week. It was reborn in 2021 in collaboration with a local carpentry.
Operation Flow
The sofa, static and bulky furniture, becomes transportable. It can be disassembled and reassembled as often as desired without the need for tools.
