About Cinque Sofa
Cinque er en tre-seters sofa designet for enkel montering uten skruer eller spiker. Et originalt sammenkoblingssystem gjør at sofaen kan monteres og demonteres for hånd, så ofte som nødvendig, uten verktøy. Strukturen er laget av bjørkekryssfiner koblet med Fenix og formet ved numerisk styrt maskinbearbeiding. Putene er trukket i økolær eller naturlige håndlagde tekstiler. Sofaen måler 205 ganger 88 ganger 73 centimeter, og kun 10 centimeter i høyden når den er demontert, slik at den kan oppbevares på et lite område. Innendørs- og utendørsversjoner er tilgjengelige.

- Production Technology
- Birch plywood coupled with Fenix. Numerical control processing of the structure. Cushions in eco-leather and / or natural handmade fabrics.
- Design Challenge
- In addition to the conception of the interlocking system, the concept of Cinque is to demonstrate that it is possible to reduce the use of plastic and hardware for the creation of large-volume furniture.
- Research
- The aim of the project is to create a sofa that can be disassembled and reassembled without the aid of tools and hardware, eliminating the plastic in the packaging and that is recyclable. The Cinque sofa is available in both indoor and outdoor versions where it finds its maximum functionality: when in the winter the sofa has no reason to be used outdoors, it can easily be disassembled and put away, taking up minimal space.
- Inspiration
- In my removals, the sofa was the most difficult and complex piece of furniture to move. Remembering the Legos I had as a child, I wanted to make this object light, removable and not bulky.
- Project Duration
- The initial project was born in 2013 for a design competition. Exhibited at the Fuori Salone del Mobile in Milan in the same year and at the Italian Cultural Institute in Vienna on the occasion of the Design Week. It was reborn in 2021 in collaboration with a local carpentry.
- Operation Flow
- The sofa, static and bulky furniture, becomes transportable. It can be disassembled and reassembled as often as desired without the need for tools.
