About Dc 3 Silyang Walang Sandalan

Ang DC 3 ay isang silyang walang sandalan na hango sa eroplanong DC 3, isang monoplane na may dalawang makina. Kapag tinitingnan mula sa gilid, ang eskulturang anyo nito ay nagpapaalala sa mga estruktural na tadyang ng pakpak ng eroplano. Ang piyesang ito ay gawa sa mga tablang plywood na hinubog sa pamamagitan ng tumpak na CNC cutting, na naglilimita sa nasasayang na materyales. Ang mga nakikitang gilid ng bawat patong ay lumilikha ng estruktural na suporta na nagsisilbi ring biswal na detalye. Lahat ng materyales ay sertipikado at hindi nakakalason, at ang pandikit at barnis ay gawa sa tubig. Ang disenyo ay maaaring gamitin bilang upuan, patungan ng paa, mesang panggilid, o pandekorasyong bagay.

Unique Properties: With a sculptural design, the stool concept refers to the aerodynamic lines of the monoplane that inspired it, the DC 3. The versatility of plywood cut by the CNC technique provides freedom of creation, bringing innovation to the stool's design that when seen sideways reproduces the shape of the legendary aircraft's wing structure. Using its own structure as a detail, the piece is built by respecting the natural aspect of its raw material, making its unique details a true invitation to the eyes
Dimensions & Packaging: 378mm X 524mm X 461mm

Production Technology: To make the DC 3 stool, boards of plywood are used through a precision cutting process (CNC). By using this technique we optimize the usage of the boards minimizing the waste of wood. The choice of revealing the different lines of each layer result in a structural support that becomes a pleasant visual detail.
All materials used to make the stool are non-toxic and certified. The glue and the varnish are water-based and the multi-layer plywood's veneers are certified by FSC (Forest Stewardship Council).
Inspiration: Inspired by the DC 3, a low-wing twin-engine monoplane that was a game changer for the aircraft market in the 1950s and 1960s, the DC 3 stool resembles the structural ribs of the monoplane's wings. Result of the designer's passion for research and development of new techniques, the piece is designed with organic curves and its structure is transformed into unique details to improve its aesthetics. The stool with a sculptural design finds in the apparent edges a way to highlight its lines.
Project Duration: DC 3 was designed in Sao Paulo in 2021
Operation Flow: Because of its unique aesthetics the DC 3 stool can be displayed as a sculpture or decoration piece as well as a side table. It is also suitable as foot rest besides its original purpose as a stool.
