About Cosmic Divano

Cosmic è un divano progettato per le zone giorno. Il divano è proposto in tre dimensioni, dalla versione a due posti di 1950 mm di larghezza a quella a quattro posti di 2980 mm di larghezza, tutte con profondità di 1040 mm e altezza di 820 mm. La struttura è realizzata interamente in legno massello di pioppo e assemblata con giunti di testa a spina, e ogni elemento presenta un taglio ad angolo complesso. L'imbottitura combina schiume ad alta densità morbide e rigide per garantire comfort e durabilità. Seduta, braccioli e schienale sono inclinati per favorire posture rilassate. Le linee sono state ispirate dalla Maserati Tipo 61 Birdcage del 1959.

Production Technology
Built entirely in solid poplar wood and assembled with doweled butt joints. All parts have complex angle cuts because there is no single piece of full square cut on the entire structure. It has a building system that with adequate equipment becomes easy to mass-produce, providing excellent resistance. The cushioning system is a combination of soft and firm high density foam, providing a pleasant feeling and good durability.
Design Challenge
The design of the structure was the major challenge in this project since all the pieces are made with different angle, but are all fit together perfectly. This design and prototyping took several weeks to complete.
Research
Several years of studies about human behavior, posture and visual sensations led to the creation of these whimsical, organic and futuristic forms. Several prototypes were necessary to combine structural strength with the best possible use of the wood, and to make the piece lighter and more efficient in the use of materials and construction system.
Inspiration
The sophisticated lines were inspired on the Maserati Type 61 Birdcage from 1959. The soft lines and dynamic curves intend to communicate the sheer daring and idealistic modernism of the 60's.
Project Duration
The project took 12 weeks in its development, from the first sketch to the final prototype. Developed at our furniture research and prototypes facilities Mérida, Yucatán, México.
Operation Flow
For a relaxed position to read, talk or relax, it has tilt at the seat, elbows and back. The softness of the fabric selected along with a mix of densities and softness of foam provides both strength and comfort seating.
