About Tondo Sofa
Tondo er en sofa designet som et skulpturelt sittemøbel for interiørrom. Formen er inspirert av kulen, en grunnleggende geometrisk form assosiert med perfeksjon og uendelighet. Kuleformer utgjør ryggstøet, mens det avrundede setet omslutter kroppen og støtter avslappede sittestillinger. Sofaen måler 3600 mm i bredde, 2000 mm i dybde og 870 mm i høyde. Konstruksjonen benytter tre fra gjenplantet skog, naturlig lateks og et sømløst tekstiltrekk med resirkulert elastan. Den fleksible trekket gjør at overflaten kan tilpasse seg kroppen, og forener komfort med et markant visuelt uttrykk.

- Design Challenge
- The creative challenge was to transform the artistic concept of the round into a functional sofa, balancing form and ergonomics. Obstacles included adapting the spheres as backrest without compromising comfort and industrial production without losing the fluidity of design. Historical and social research allowed for aesthetics, and sustainable materials, manufacturing technology and structural viability were challenges overcome to ensure innovation and product quality.
- Research
- The design research of the Tondo Sofa was exploratory, based on the observation of nature and the influence of the Renaissance rood. The goal was to create a piece of furniture that combines art and functionality in an innovative way. The methodology combined ergonomic studies, materials testing and digital modeling. Data were collected by prototyping and comfort analysis with users. The result was a fluid and timeless design, impacting the market with its unique and versatile aesthetics.
- Inspiration
- The Tondo sofa was inspired by the basic geometric shapes present in the universe, with a focus on the sphere, an element that represents perfection, infinity and eternity.
- Project Duration
- The project began in July two thousand twenty four in Florianópolis and ended in September two thousand twenty four. It was exhibited at the Casa Cor Florianopolis exhibition in Brazil.
- Operation Flow
- The Tondo Sofa operates intuitively: its organic design invites to use, allowing the user to naturally settle in different positions. Its rounded shape wraps around the body, promoting relaxation. The absence of seams and flexible lining provide ergonomic adaptation. Its performance comes from the fusion of aesthetics and comfort, offering optimal support and a unique visual impact, making it a functional and sculptural piece at the same time.
