About Limonio 다이닝 체어
리모니오(Limonio)는 다양한 디자인 스타일의 인테리어에 어울리도록 제작된 다이닝 체어입니다. 이 의자는 간결한 라인과 단순화된 생물형태(바이오모픽) 등받이를 지니며, 이는 가늘게 테이퍼진 다리와 대비를 이루어 비대칭적인 균형을 만들어냅니다. 노출된 프레임은 최소한으로 절제되었으며 황동 디테일로 마무리되었습니다. 곡목 합판 등받이와 좌판은 황동 핀으로 고정된 원목 사다리꼴 부재로 연결됩니다. 고밀도 폼과 테이퍼진 자세는 의자에 가벼운 인상을 부여합니다. 생산 방식은 산업적 공정과 수공예 작업을 결합하였습니다.

- Unique Properties
- Its clean lines, the contrast between a fine simplified biomorphic shaped back and the thin yet strong legs creates an elegant asymmetrical balance. Its lightweight appearance, the exposed minimal frame enhanced with brass detail, ensure its function as a dining chair and as a modern and sophisticated design piece.

- Production Technology
- The chair gains it lightness through a strong tapered stance and high density foam. Connections between the bent plywood backrest and seat are via solid wood trapezoids pegged with brass.
- Design Challenge
- In the dozen years that we have been collaborating with designers and and designing our own chairs, we are constantly reacting to the thoughts and comments of our commercial parters, be they retail sellers, hotel specifiers, interior designers or architects. Our goal is always to create something that is unique, that can inhabit its own design space and introduce some new ideas. For the Limonio, we concentrated upon the detail. The brass pinned trapezoid connectors and the mask like shape of the backrest define this piece.
- Research
- We were trying to design a chair that could happily sit in surroundings of different design language. The chair should be light in weight and appearance to juxtapose with our dominantly weighty tables. It should convey the personality and humor of our brand and play to our mixed production practices of technology and craftsmanship.
- Inspiration
- Inspired by the great designs and shapes from last century, exploring new minimal frames in which distinctives details can be integrated without being strident. Using know how and craft-oriented makers, from a postindustrial approach, the piece is unique. I call it Limonio as it is fresh and soft, but still has character (acid) like the drink.
- Project Duration
- Ten months. March 2019 - Jan 2020.Developed between Barcelona and Ho Chi Minh City. It will be exhibited at VIFA (Vietnam) March 2020.
- Operation Flow
- This chair has character, confidence and humor, however it is not boorish and self centered. It happily sits alongside pieces of different style and personality. Whilst it gathers attention and admirers, it does not scream look at me.
