The Design
About Corcovado 소파
코르코바도(Corcovado)는 거실 공간을 위해 디자인된 소파입니다. 그 형태는 코르코바도 언덕에서 영감을 받았으며 유기적이고 유려한 선을 따릅니다. 등받이는 좌석 중앙까지 뻗어 나와 좌석을 감싸 안습니다. 긴 원목 측면으로 이루어진 베이스가 제품 전체를 따라 이어지며 지지 역할을 합니다. 마감재로는 원목과 패브릭이 사용되었습니다. 소파의 크기는 너비 4.8미터, 높이 0.92미터, 깊이 1.9미터입니다. 네 개의 장식용 쿠션이 포함되어 있어 사용자가 개인의 취향에 맞게 편안함과 외관을 조절할 수 있습니다. 이 디자인은 조각적인 형태와 인체공학적 편안함을 결합합니다.

- 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.
