About Wave Түшлэгтэй сандал
Wave нь далайн давалгааны хэлбэрээс санаа авсан түшлэгтэй сандал юм. Хэлбэр нь суурь хэсэгтээ илүү эзэлхүүнтэй бөгөөд үзүүр рүүгээ аажмаар нарийсдаг. Суудал болон түшлэг нь дүүжлэгдсэн байдалтай бөгөөд бие биедээ хүрэлцдэггүй, учир нь бүтэц нь бүхэлдээ шилэн хөвөнгөөр хийгдсэн. Таван тусдаа хэв ашиглагдаж, гарсан эд ангиудыг ламинацын аргаар нийлүүлдэг. Муруй суурь нь бага зэрэг найгах хөдөлгөөн хийх боломжийг олгодог. Бүрээс нь цахилгаан товч болон үдээсгүйгээр, даавуунд оёж бэхэлсэн далд хуванцар хавчаараар хаагддаг. Түшлэгтэй сандал нь 800 мм өргөн, 950 мм гүн, 650 мм өндөр хэмжээтэй.

Behind the Design
Press Kit
Credits, team members and technical details provided by the designer.
- Unique Properties
- The Wave Armchair boasts a unique design inspired by the rolling waves of the sea, which are characterized by more volume at the base as they form, before curving and gradually "breaking down" to taper at the ends. The seat and backrest are suspended without touching each other, thanks to a structure entirely composed of fiberglass. The fluidity and movement of the waves are captured in the armchair's design, with the curved base providing a gentle rocking motion.
- Dimensions & Packaging
- L800 mm x D950 mm x H650 mm

- Production Technology
- The first prototype was made of plain wood, layer by layer glued all together getting a crudest form. We spent 4 months to get the real shape with all curves, rays, ergonomic and swing aspects. Posteriorly, we started making fiberglass molds using the wood shaped like a counter mold. As it has volume and an unique shape, was necessary five fiberglass molds. Every fiberglass mold gives a different piece of the armchair, which are fixed all together in a process we call lamination. For coating, there is no zipper or staples, only an OKE plastic clip sewn at the cloth, and it's hidden under the seat, making it a cover. The internal part of the cover is made of an specific flexible synthetic leather, flexible to avoid ripples, and exterior with woven fabric, giving a nice contrast.
- Design Challenge
- I have previously incorporated fiberglass into various furniture products. However, this was the first time that I had to create a product that required molding fiberglass into a three-dimensional volume - a particularly challenging task due to the unique shape of the Wave Armchair. In fact, it took five different molds to successfully produce each armchair during the manufacturing process.
- Research
- Moreover, we have witnessed the emergence of organic and sculptural furniture design, which evokes curiosity and introduces a fresh perspective to interior design. As a designer, I find inspiration in natural elements and shapes, which fuel my creativity. Combining this with my passion for surfing - a sport that fosters a deep connection between humans and nature - I set out to create the Wave Armchair. Through this piece, I aim to capture the essence of my surfing experiences and bring the feeling of being immersed in nature into interior design.
- Inspiration
- My love for the sea runs deep - I have been sporadically surfing since I was 12 years old. For me, the waves represent the epitome of natural beauty, exuding strength and fluidity in their movement. It was precisely these characteristics that inspired me to create a sculptural piece that emulates the shape of waves. My vision was for this piece to evoke a sense of satisfaction when admired, curiosity when pushing the boundaries of material form, and harmony with the human body in its usability.
- Project Duration
- The project started in March 2022 in Jaraguá do Sul and finished in January 2023, and was exhibited in a private event for Quorum Home Design in February 2023 in São Paulo, Brazil.
- Operation Flow
- The Wave armchair is a sculpted masterpiece that piques curiosity with its unique shape. It evokes a sense of satisfaction when admired and seamlessly harmonizes with the human body during use, thanks to its flexible and adaptive seat. Adding to its appeal, the chair provides a slight swinging motion that enhances comfort. Additionally, the chair boasts remarkable durability, with a weight capacity of over 200kg.
