About Ab Chair Poltrona lounge
Ab Chair è una poltrona lounge progettata per il relax negli interni contemporanei. Il concept prevede una scocca in compensato curvato con impiallacciatura naturale che accoglie cuscini imbottiti rivestiti in un tessuto morbido dai toni neutri. I cuscini sono realizzati in schiuma ad alta densità per garantire comfort e durata nel tempo. Una base girevole in alluminio pressofuso aggiunge stabilità e facilità di movimento. Un pouf coordinato consente una postura di riposo completa. Linee fluide e proporzioni equilibrate conferiscono alla poltrona una forma scultorea. La produzione unisce la lavorazione CNC alle tecniche tradizionali di tappezzeria.

- Production Technology
- The concept envisions a molded plywood shell with natural veneer to achieve both strength and sculptural form. Cushions are proposed in high-density foam with textile upholstery to ensure comfort and durability. A cast aluminum swivel base provides stability and flexibility. The realization would rely on CNC machining for precision, combined with traditional upholstery techniques to highlight craftsmanship within a contemporary production framework.
- Design Challenge
- The main challenge was uniting ergonomic comfort with a sculptural identity while keeping the design feasible for production. Internally, balancing proportions and ensuring posture support demanded continuous refinement. Externally, limits of material behavior, sustainable sourcing, and potential manufacturing methods shaped the design. Overcoming these obstacles led to a concept that harmonizes function, aesthetics, and future production possibilities.
- Research
- This research was conceptual design research aimed at creating a lounge chair that merges ergonomics with sculptural form. The objective was to study posture and material potential. Methodology included digital modeling and ergonomic analysis, using 3D software as main tools. Participants were posture studies and design simulations. Results showed the value of fluid proportions, leading to insights on comfort and aesthetics. The impact highlights how design can enhance well being and enrich furniture culture.
- Inspiration
- Inspired by the harmony between nature and modern living, this design draws from the organic fluidity of wood and the softness of upholstered comfort. The concept emerged from a study of human posture and the desire to merge ergonomics with sculptural elegance. Research into traditional craftsmanship and contemporary production methods informed the balance of warmth, durability, and precision, creating a timeless piece that invites both rest and reflection.
- Project Duration
- The project Start in May 2025 in New York and finished July 2025
- Operation Flow
- The chair is designed to invite relaxation through intuitive use. Its gently reclined form and supportive cushions naturally adapt to the body, while the swivel base allows smooth movement without effort. The accompanying ottoman extends comfort, encouraging a full resting posture. By combining ergonomic proportions with a seamless flow of materials, the interaction feels effortless, offering a balance of functionality and calmness in daily living.
