Production Technology
French oak wood has been chosen to produce this armchair for its warmth and at the same time, its quality. Quality brown coloured leather to shape the cushion and for the support strips of the marble piece, which allows for perfect adjustment of the cushion.
Design Challenge
The combination between the angles, unions and material resistances during the production tests, became the major challenge in order to achieve a big and aesthetic piece as we present.
Research
The design process started by drawing simple lines and angles with the idea of making the profile view of the chair iconic and very recognizable.
Inspiration
Its main inspiration was the need to create a large piece that evoked the primordial sensations of balance and "about to break" at the same time.
Project Duration
The project was developed in Mallorca during 2018, ending its execution and presentation in 2019.
Operation Flow
The main concept of this project is based on its slender geometry.
Its skeleton is made of tinted French oak, forming a geometric structure identifiable with the general aesthetics and concept of the brand.
