About Cinque 沙發

Cinque係一張三人座沙發,設計上唔使用螺絲或釘都可以輕鬆組裝。獨創嘅嵌合系統令呢張沙發可以徒手裝拆,想裝就裝、想拆就拆,唔使任何工具。結構部分採用樺木夾板結合Fenix面材,再經數控加工塑形而成。座墊套面提供環保皮革或天然手工布料選擇。呢張沙發尺寸為205 x 88 x 73厘米,拆開之後高度得10厘米,可以收納喺好細嘅空間度。仲有室內同室外兩種版本可供選擇。

Unique Properties: A minimal sofa that is easy to assemble without the use of screws or nails. Original interlocking assembly system that allows you to assemble and disassemble a 3 seater sofa whenever you need it.
Dimensions & Packaging: Sofa dimensions: 205x88x73 cm.
Sofa disassembled dimensions: 205x88x10 cm.
Tags: sofa, minimal, furniture, divano, plywood, eco
Production Technology: Birch plywood coupled with Fenix. Numerical control processing of the structure. Cushions in eco-leather and / or natural handmade fabrics.
Design Challenge: In addition to the conception of the interlocking system, the concept of Cinque is to demonstrate that it is possible to reduce the use of plastic and hardware for the creation of large-volume furniture.
Research: The aim of the project is to create a sofa that can be disassembled and reassembled without the aid of tools and hardware, eliminating the plastic in the packaging and that is recyclable. The Cinque sofa is available in both indoor and outdoor versions where it finds its maximum functionality: when in the winter the sofa has no reason to be used outdoors, it can easily be disassembled and put away, taking up minimal space.
Inspiration: In my removals, the sofa was the most difficult and complex piece of furniture to move. Remembering the Legos I had as a child, I wanted to make this object light, removable and not bulky.
Project Duration: The initial project was born in 2013 for a design competition. Exhibited at the Fuori Salone del Mobile in Milan in the same year and at the Italian Cultural Institute in Vienna on the occasion of the Design Week. It was reborn in 2021 in collaboration with a local carpentry.
Operation Flow: The sofa, static and bulky furniture, becomes transportable. It can be disassembled and reassembled as often as desired without the need for tools.
