The Design
About Corcovado ソファ
コルコバードは、リビングスペースのためにデザインされたソファです。そのフォルムはコルコバードの丘陵から着想を得ており、有機的で流れるようなラインを描いています。背もたれは座面の中央まで伸び、座面を包み込むように広がります。長い木製のサイドを持つベースが本体に沿って走り、支持体として機能します。仕上げには木材とファブリックを使用しています。ソファの寸法は幅4.8メートル、高さ0.92メートル、奥行き1.9メートルです。4つの装飾クッションが付属しており、使い手それぞれが自分の好みに合わせて快適性と見た目を調整できます。このデザインは、彫刻的なフォルムと人間工学に基づいた快適性を融合させています。

- Production Technology
- Every detail of the Corcovado Sofa is designed to connect, to express a narrative where form follows function, and both follow fantasy. With it, Victor Leite reaffirms his position as a product designer and brand curator in the high decoration segment. The sofa is a testament to his commitment not only to aesthetics and comfort, but also to the idea that a design object should inspire, should speak to the space and to those who inhabit it.
- Design Challenge
- The most difficult part of the design of the Corcovado Sofa was to balance aesthetic innovation with ergonomics. The creative challenge was to create a sculptural piece inspired by nature without sacrificing comfort. Obstacles included material and technology limitations for shaping complex shapes, as well as adjusting the design to meet ergonomic standards. External factors, such as production technologies and material availability, also influenced the final choices.
- Research
- The design research of the Corcovado Sofa was qualitative, aiming to create a piece of furniture that combined sculptural form with comfort. Interviews, 3D prototypes and ergonomic tests were used. Participants included users and design experts. The results showed the need for adjustments in the structure. The insights revealed the value of organic aesthetics in functionality. The research impacted design, promoting innovation and meeting market and social demands.
