The Design

About Familial Cadeira

Familial é uma cadeira de madeira concebida para ser utilizada tanto por crianças como por adultos. Um movimento simples inverte a cadeira e converte-a numa segunda configuração. Uma única peça de mobiliário serve, assim, dois grupos etários, o que poupa espaço e reduz a quantidade de material necessária. A geometria e os ângulos da cadeira foram aperfeiçoados para manter o assento ergonómico e confortável. Familial responde aos espaços habitacionais mais reduzidos das cidades densamente povoadas, onde o mobiliário multifuncional se revela útil. O design equilibra estética e funcionalidade.

Project Duration: The project was began and completed in April 2022 in Tehran, Iran.
