This armchair is inspired by the sinuous and light lines of nature, mainly of a leaf. The design is simple but effective and thanks to the production technology of the curved plywood and the specific shape, the armchair will be able to flex slightly according to who sits and the weight of the person. In the upper part there is a comfortable shelf for magazines or books or any other items within reach during a small rest on the leaf armchair.

In the back part near the backrest there is a comfortable space to rest magazines or books and always have them. Thanks to the holes and the flexible wood, the armchair adapts comfortably to our weight.
- Research
- I started doing an in-depth market and style research by looking at the various manufacturers of furniture, designers and existing products. I used google, pinterest, behance and the like for my web search, even magazines like Elle Decor or Marclaire Maison. The first and fundamental rules in design are to create a product that is above all useful, innovative and also beautiful. The goal was to create a product that could become iconic, simple but with a high visual impact and useful.
- Inspiration
- This armchair with a simple but unique and comfortable style is inspired by the sinuous shapes of nature, mainly of the leaf. Versatility in different environments and thanks also to the qualities of the construction materials, make it an extremely unique design.
