About Lu Sella

Saepe homines indigent ut res recondere possint, fortasse aperiendi, fortasse domum purgandi, interdum etiam secum sumendi, praesertim supellex cuiusdam campi semper difficillimum. Ita natus "Lu", sella triclinii diversis clypei generibus apta. Consilium est porttitor et elegans simul ac nomen "Lu" trahit & quot; sarcinas & quot; because of its ease of being resealable and transportable ubicumque voles (per a move, in a holiday home, etc.).

Design, Art, Utility, Happiness, Style
Production Technology
mold for plywood, tongue in hard rubber, legs in cut and folded metal, plywood back also milled for details.
Design Challenge
The part that I always think is the most difficult in design is to design something that is beautiful and useful, but that is recognizable in the good sense of the word.
Research
Many times we find ourselves having to put away objects, perhaps to make room, perhaps to clean the house and sometimes even to take them with us, but above all for furniture of a certain level it is always very difficult. This is where "Lu chair" was born, a dining chair suitable for different types of target, from the most elegant and sophisticated with an eye to detail but also to a younger, fashion-conscious audience. The design is innovative and elegant at the same time and the name "Lu" derives precisely from "luggage" because of its ease of being resealable and transportable wherever you want (during a move, in a holiday home, etc ...).
Inspiration
The inspiration came to me from the fact that there are no chairs on the market, in my opinion with an attractive design and easily transportable and by easily transportable I mean just like a suitcase.
Project Duration
The project started in February 2021 in Padova and finished in March 2021 in Padova.
Operation Flow
This chair can be easily folded to be taken anywhere, on vacation, in another home etc .. both the backrest and the legs fold and join together with a rubber strap, which will be used as a handle.
