About Dcl Stóll

Dcl er stóll gerður að öllu leyti úr háþéttum trefjaplötum. Sérhver hluti er skorinn með CNC-fræsivél. Stóllinn er málaður í björtum, heilum lit og hægt er að nota hvaða lit sem er. Séð úr fjarlægð lítur Dcl nánast út eins og teningslaga blokk í heilum lit fremur en stóll. Hönnunin byggir á stólarannsókn eftir ítalska arkitektinn og hönnuðinn Cesare Leonardi, sem varð aðeins að trélíkani og var aldrei framleidd. Nafnið Dcl stendur fyrir Dopo Cesare Leonardi, sem þýðir Eftir Cesare Leonardi. Stóllinn mælist 55 sinnum 50 sinnum 70 sentimetrar.

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.
Patents: The design was registered at IAB (Instituto dos Arquitetos do Brasil)
Team Members: Álvaro Wolmer
