About Dcl チェア

Dclは高密度繊維板(HDF)のみで構成されたチェアである。すべてのパーツはCNCルーターで切り出されている。本体は鮮やかな単色で塗装されており、どのような色にも対応できる。遠くから眺めると、Dclは椅子というよりも、単色の立方体のブロックのように見える。このデザインは、イタリアの建築家でありデザイナーでもあるチェーザレ・レオナルディによる椅子の習作に着想を得ている。その習作は木製モデルのまま留まり、製品化されることはなかった。Dclという名称は「Dopo Cesare Leonardi(チェーザレ・レオナルディの後に)」を意味する。寸法は幅55×奥行50×高さ70センチメートル。

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)
