About Delirios 扶手椅

Delirios 是一款将手工技艺与数字化生产方式相融合的扶手椅。其底座采用参数化华夫格编程设计，这是一种通过榫接结构相互咬合、形成流动感形体的三维建模方式。底座由数控（CNC）机床对经过认证的多层复合木材切割而成。靠背与坐垫则以手工制作，轻盈地搁置在木质结构之上。底座以四个支撑点与地面相接。软包面料可选皮革、羊毛、纱线或棉质。Delirios 将数字技术与巴西手工艺传统合而为一。

Unique Properties: Delirios is an armchair that uses both craftwork and digital ways of production, and comes from an attempt to unite digital to analog and technology to essencial Brazilian culture. Its basis was digitally designed using parametric waffle programming, a type of 3D modeling that creates a flow structure made with fittings. This structure was digitally made by CNC in certified wood pieces, while the backrest and seat are made from craftwork production.
Dimensions & Packaging: 950 mm x 1140 mm x 1040 mm
Certified multi-laminated wood basis;
Upholstery available in leather, wool, thread or cotton.

Production Technology: Mixing analog and digital, the basis in multi-laminated wood was designed using parametric programming so that the structure could be fluid and fixed by fittings. The fabrication of the structure was made from CNC.
While the upholstered rests by the basis in a light and subtle way, the basis touches the floor through four points of support, also lightly.
Design Challenge: Creating a furniture that, through parametric programming, assembles analog to digital.
Research: Studies on waffle parametric programming to develop the wooden basis.
Inspiration: Delirios came from the desire to experiment with digital technologies together with artisanal methods, in order to unite technological advances with the Brazilian cultural legacy. The name Delirios was chosen as a tribute to Flavio de Carvalho, the Brazilian artist who mixed in his creations design, painting, performances, set design and architecture as powerful social criticism.
Project Duration: The Delirios Armchair was presented at the launch of the Mais55 Design brand in Sao Paulo in June 2020.
Operation Flow: The basis of the armchair is digitally designed using parametric programming and built through the fittings of the cut laminated wood pieces. The backrest subtly rests on the wooden structure, which touches the floor through four supports, also subtly and lightly. A super comfortable armchair with a unique design.
