About Geometric Noho Hoʻomaha, Noho ʻAina
He noho ʻo Geometric i hoʻolālāʻia no ka hoʻomaha a me ka ʻai ʻana. Ua hana piha ʻia ke kiʻiʻāina mai ka lāʻau ʻoka ʻulaʻula paʻa, a hui pū ʻia me nā hui mortise a me tenon i ʻokiʻia ma nā kihi paʻakikī. Ke hilinaʻi nei ke kūkulu ma nā ʻaui ʻekolu, a ma laila e loaʻa ai i ka noho kahi helehelena māmā a ʻoniʻoni i ka wā e mālama ʻia ai kona ikaika. Ua hoʻopiʻi ʻia ka noho a me ke kua e kōkua maikaʻi ai ka noho ʻana. Hoʻohui ʻia ka ʻuhi lālani me nā papa ʻehā o ka mea māmā (foam) me nā paʻakai like ʻole, a me kahi ʻōnaehana lauoho maʻalahi, no laila e pane mālie ana ka mea uhi i ke kaumaha o ke kino. Ua hana lima ʻia ka ʻuhi o ka noho.
About the A' Design Award Hao
Ua lanakila ka hoʻolālā Geometric Noho Hoʻomaha, Noho ʻAina i ka A' Design Award Hao, he ʻike hoʻohanohano i hāʻawi ʻia i nā hoʻolālā maikaʻi e hoʻokō ana i nā koi ʻoihana a ʻoihana hana i manaʻo ʻia mai nā mea hoʻokumu i hana maikaʻi ʻia. Hōʻike nā lanakila Hao i ka mākau nui, ka loea kiʻekiʻe, ka ʻike akamai a me ka hiki hana noʻeau o ka poʻe i hana iā lākou. Manaʻo ʻia ʻo ka hoʻolālā Geometric Noho Hoʻomaha, Noho ʻAina he mea hoʻokumu i mahalo nui ʻia, hoʻohiwahiwa ʻia a aloha ʻia e pono a hou. ʻO kēia hoʻolālā i lanakila i ka A' Design Award Hao e hoʻohui ana i nā hana maikaʻi loa o ka ʻoihana a loaʻa nā ʻano ʻenehana mākaukau i hui pū ʻia me ka ʻike hana a me ka makakoho. Mahalo ʻia ka hoʻolālā Geometric Noho Hoʻomaha, Noho ʻAina no kona nānā pono a ua hoʻolālā ʻia e hāʻawi i nā hoʻomaikaʻi ola e kōkua ai i ka hana ʻana i ka honua i wahi maikaʻi aku.
Press Kit
- Unique Properties
- The structure of the chair is both simple and edgy, relying solely on three axes, giving it a visual lightness. The tilting on the pieces provide an air of modernity and dynamism unique to this collection. The ergonomics of this armchair is perfect, it has the correct inclination of the seat and back, so you can relax and enjoy.

- Tags
- Confortable seat, lounge chair, modern furniture, solid wood, 1960’s style, retro
- Production Technology
- Built entirely of solid red oak wood oak. The joinery is made with mortise and tenon, using complex angles. This piece was designed to achieve the perfect fit and durability for everyday use, it was necessary to use high-tech machinery to produce this piece successfully.
The engineering of the seat and backrest allows a progressive cushioning thanks to the multiple layers of different densities of foam and elastic supports, delivering a smooth and enjoyable feeling. The upholstery was completely handmade, to offer more character and personality. - Design Challenge
- The retro was to develop a processing system and assembly based on the mortise and tenon joinery, that despite the sharp angles had a structure feasible to replicate in mass production with a good fit of vertices and unions.
- Research
- An extensive vector study of engineering was necessary to obtain the assemble system of the pieces without affecting the resistance. This resulted in a light and dynamic look that is seen in this piece, remaining robust and resistant.
- Inspiration
- This collection is inspired by the geometric structures of the industrial era (late nineteenth century), and is mixed with the silhouettes and the spirit of the 60's. It has a modernist zeal and a retro timeless touch, ideal for modern interior environments.
- Project Duration
- This project took 12 weeks from the first sketches to the final prototype for mass production, made in the laboratory and prototype design in Mérida, Yucatán, México.
- Operation Flow
- The padding of the seat, despite being slender, has a progressive reaction so that it adapts to the weight and body shape of the person using it; it has four layers of foam of different densities and a flexible support webbing system to better accommodate ergonomically.
