The Design

About Graphic 소파

그래픽(Graphic)은 리셉션 공간과 거실을 위해 디자인된 소파이다. 형태는 장식 없이 단순하고 기하학적이다. 등받이는 원형을 반지름의 세 배로 늘린 형상에서 비롯되었으며, 이는 구조적인 좌석에 한층 가벼운 인상을 부여한다. 프레임은 조림 목재로 제작되었는데, 구조 부위에는 립투스(Lyptus)를, 나머지 부위에는 소나무(Pinus)를 사용하였다. 좌석에는 밀도 30의 폼이 들어가며, 다리는 자동차용 도료로 도장한 탄소강이다. 커버는 천연 원단이다. 좌석과 바닥 사이의 여유 공간은 청소를 한결 수월하게 해준다.

Production Technology
The sofa is made with reforestation woods: Lyptus in the structural parts and Pinus in the other parts. It has 30 density foam in its seat, carbon steel feet painted with automotive paint and natural fabric.
Design Challenge
The major challenge was to respect the ergonomics and confort without losing the design of the piece.
Research
With a creative process in which form is first thought, then function and ergonomics, the designer investigated the circular shape in the extract of its origin: the point. Bringing Kandisnky's phrase that was an inspiration for the creation of unique design pieces that present themselves with pure geometric shapes.: "The line is a moving point". The creation of the sofa emerged from the observation of the circular shape and its possible functions, the shape was assigned the function of a backrest and then, by extending this shape by 3 times from its radius, the designer visualized a backrest of a sofa.
Inspiration
The designer is enchanted by visual language since she was little and prefers images to long texts. She saw in the infographics that accompanied her throughout her student life, shapes that could become design objects. At the same time, she delved into deep studies of concrete art and geometric abstractionism and this brought her the idea of transforming the forms into furniture.
Project Duration
The project started in November 2018 in Sao Paulo and finished in June 2019 in Sao Paulo.
Operation Flow
The piece is comfortable and perfect for public spaces such as receptions, once they promote a formal way of seating. In addition, the sofa provides an easy way to clean the room through the gap between the seat and the floor.
