Unique Properties
Fly is a modular and hybrid system designed during the quarantine. It represents the need to change the house, because in this pandemic time, we have learned that the house needs to adapt to us, and not the other way around. The system is composed of two structures in different heights, with drilled channels, bars, shelves and butterfly screws to assemble many layout configurations. To use from the office to the bedroom, including the kitchen.
Dimensions & Packaging
Structure 1 1100mm x 400mm x 2347mm
structure 2 1100mm x 400mm x 850mm
Tags
hybrid, modular, quarantine, minimalist, function, sustaintability, freedom, simplicity, elegance
Production Technology
It is made of brass, steel, and reused pressed wood. It has different heights and many configurations to assemble the layout.
Design Challenge
The challenge was to create a system that really worked without the help of a professional to assemble, and thus, uniting form and function.
Research
The research was about technology and creative solutions for hybrid furniture, which people could change shape according to their needs.
Inspiration
We developed the Fly modular system, when coronavirus restrictions were first imposed in Brazil, inspired by the need to adapt our home environment to our changing lives. It features a minimalist design, suitable for different environments and uses—it is the metamorphosis of the home. The butterfly-shaped screws add a beautiful touch and symbolize freedom, reminding us to use our imagination to explore our possibilities.
Project Duration
The project started in july 2020 in Belo Horizonte, Brasil and finished in August 2021 in Belo Horizonte, Brasil.
Operation Flow
It is simple to use. Just need to fix the bars with the butterfly screw into the channels drilled from the frame to support the shelves. It can be assemble and disassemble by yourself.
