About Graphic Canapea

Graphic este o canapea concepută pentru zonele de recepție și camerele de zi. Forma este simplă și geometrică, fără ornamente. Spătarul derivă dintr-o formă circulară extinsă până la de trei ori raza sa, ceea ce conferă șezutului structurat un aspect mai lejer. Cadrul este realizat din lemn provenit din reîmpăduriri, cu Lyptus în părțile structurale și Pinus în celelalte părți. Șezutul conține spumă cu densitatea de 30, iar picioarele sunt din oțel-carbon vopsit cu vopsea auto. Husa este din material textil natural. Spațiul dintre șezut și podea ușurează curățarea.

Production Technology
The sofa is made with reforestation woods: Lyptus in the structural parts and Pinus in the other parts. It has 30 density foam in its seat, carbon steel feet painted with automotive paint and natural fabric.
Design Challenge
The major challenge was to respect the ergonomics and confort without losing the design of the piece.
Research
With a creative process in which form is first thought, then function and ergonomics, the designer investigated the circular shape in the extract of its origin: the point. Bringing Kandisnky's phrase that was an inspiration for the creation of unique design pieces that present themselves with pure geometric shapes.: "The line is a moving point". The creation of the sofa emerged from the observation of the circular shape and its possible functions, the shape was assigned the function of a backrest and then, by extending this shape by 3 times from its radius, the designer visualized a backrest of a sofa.
Inspiration
The designer is enchanted by visual language since she was little and prefers images to long texts. She saw in the infographics that accompanied her throughout her student life, shapes that could become design objects. At the same time, she delved into deep studies of concrete art and geometric abstractionism and this brought her the idea of transforming the forms into furniture.
Project Duration
The project started in November 2018 in Sao Paulo and finished in June 2019 in Sao Paulo.
Operation Flow
The piece is comfortable and perfect for public spaces such as receptions, once they promote a formal way of seating. In addition, the sofa provides an easy way to clean the room through the gap between the seat and the floor.
