About Dcl Cathaoir
Is cathaoir í Dcl atá déanta go hiomlán as clár snáithíneach ard-dlúis. Gearrtar gach páirt le ródóir CNC. Tá an chathaoir péinteáilte i ndath geal aondathach, agus is féidir aon dath a chur uirthi. Ó fhad amach, is geall le bloc ciúbach aondathach í Dcl seachas cathaoir. Leanann an dearadh staidéar cathaoireach a rinne an t-ailtire agus dearthóir Iodálach Cesare Leonardi, staidéar a d'fhan ina shamhail adhmaid agus nár táirgeadh riamh. Seasann an t-ainm Dcl do Dopo Cesare Leonardi, a chiallaíonn I ndiaidh Cesare Leonardi. Tá an chathaoir 55 faoi 50 faoi 70 ceintiméadar ar mhéid.

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.
- Operation Flow
- It's a chair.
