About Dc 3 Baklaus stóll
DC 3 er baklaus stóll innblásinn af DC 3 flugvélinni, tveggja hreyfla einþekju. Séð frá hlið minnir skúlptúrformið á burðarrif flugvélarvængsins. Verkið er gert úr krossviðarplötum sem eru mótaðar með nákvæmri CNC-skurðartækni, sem takmarkar efnissóun. Sýnilegar brúnir hvers lags mynda burðarstoð sem virkar jafnframt sem sjónrænt smáatriði. Öll efni eru vottuð og eiturefnalaus, og límið og lakkið eru vatnsbundin. Hönnunina má nota sem sæti, fótskemil, hliðarborð eða skrautmun.

Press Kit
- Unique Properties
- With a sculptural design, the stool concept refers to the aerodynamic lines of the monoplane that inspired it, the DC 3. The versatility of plywood cut by the CNC technique provides freedom of creation, bringing innovation to the stool's design that when seen sideways reproduces the shape of the legendary aircraft's wing structure. Using its own structure as a detail, the piece is built by respecting the natural aspect of its raw material, making its unique details a true invitation to the eyes

- Production Technology
- To make the DC 3 stool, boards of plywood are used through a precision cutting process (CNC). By using this technique we optimize the usage of the boards minimizing the waste of wood. The choice of revealing the different lines of each layer result in a structural support that becomes a pleasant visual detail.
All materials used to make the stool are non-toxic and certified. The glue and the varnish are water-based and the multi-layer plywood's veneers are certified by FSC (Forest Stewardship Council). - Inspiration
- Inspired by the DC 3, a low-wing twin-engine monoplane that was a game changer for the aircraft market in the 1950s and 1960s, the DC 3 stool resembles the structural ribs of the monoplane's wings. Result of the designer's passion for research and development of new techniques, the piece is designed with organic curves and its structure is transformed into unique details to improve its aesthetics. The stool with a sculptural design finds in the apparent edges a way to highlight its lines.
- Project Duration
- DC 3 was designed in Sao Paulo in 2021
- Operation Flow
- Because of its unique aesthetics the DC 3 stool can be displayed as a sculpture or decoration piece as well as a side table. It is also suitable as foot rest besides its original purpose as a stool.
