The Design

About Delirios Fauteuil

Delirios ass e Fauteuil deen d'Handwierksaarbecht mat digitale Produktiounsmethoden verbënnt. D'Basis gouf mat parametrescher Waffel-Programméierung entworf, eng Zort 3D-Modelléierung déi eng flësseg Struktur schaaft déi duerch Verbindungsstécker zesummegehale gëtt. D'Basis gëtt vu CNC-Maschinnen aus zertifizéiertem multi-laminéiertem Holz geschnidden. D'Réckelehn an de Sëtz gi vun Hand gemaach a leien liicht op der Holzstruktur op. D'Basis trëfft de Buedem u véier Ënnerstëtzungspunkten. D'Poletterung ass verfügbar a Lieder, Woll, Fuedem oder Kotteng. Delirios verbënnt digital Technologie mat brasilianeschen Handwierkstraditiounen.

Unique Properties
Delirios is an armchair that uses both craftwork and digital ways of production, and comes from an attempt to unite digital to analog and technology to essencial Brazilian culture. Its basis was digitally designed using parametric waffle programming, a type of 3D modeling that creates a flow structure made with fittings. This structure was digitally made by CNC in certified wood pieces, while the backrest and seat are made from craftwork production.
Dimensions & Packaging
950 mm x 1140 mm x 1040 mm
Certified multi-laminated wood basis;
Upholstery available in leather, wool, thread or cotton.

Production Technology
Mixing analog and digital, the basis in multi-laminated wood was designed using parametric programming so that the structure could be fluid and fixed by fittings. The fabrication of the structure was made from CNC.
While the upholstered rests by the basis in a light and subtle way, the basis touches the floor through four points of support, also lightly.
Design Challenge
Creating a furniture that, through parametric programming, assembles analog to digital.
Research
Studies on waffle parametric programming to develop the wooden basis.
Inspiration
Delirios came from the desire to experiment with digital technologies together with artisanal methods, in order to unite technological advances with the Brazilian cultural legacy. The name Delirios was chosen as a tribute to Flavio de Carvalho, the Brazilian artist who mixed in his creations design, painting, performances, set design and architecture as powerful social criticism.
Project Duration
The Delirios Armchair was presented at the launch of the Mais55 Design brand in Sao Paulo in June 2020.
Operation Flow
The basis of the armchair is digitally designed using parametric programming and built through the fittings of the cut laminated wood pieces. The backrest subtly rests on the wooden structure, which touches the floor through four supports, also subtly and lightly. A super comfortable armchair with a unique design.
