About Lazy Day Collection 座椅

Lazy Day係一系列專為現代客廳而設計嘅座椅。呢個系列包括扶手椅同梳化,梳化有雙座位同三座位兩種尺寸。最矚目嘅特色係圓渾嘅木造椅背,表面貼上木皮飾面,並以緞面或高光澤處理。提供兩個版本——經典款同現代款,喺椅腳同飾面上各有分別。結構結合多層中密度纖維板(MDF)同鋁材以增強牢固度,而軟墊底下嘅內襯結構則塑造出布料嘅形態。椅腳採用鋼材配金色漆油或拉絲不鏽鋼。亦可提供訂造選項。

Production Technology
The Lazy Day collection has a complex construction method. The wooden structure is made with several interior layers of MDF and aluminum to give it the much-needed resistance. Under the upholstery, there is also a sub-structure to allow the fabric its perfect feet to form. The feet are in steel with gold paint or brushed stainless steel. The wooden structure is veneered with the most exquisite wood leaves, with a satin finish (in the Modern version) or a high-gloss finish (in the Classic version).
Design Challenge
The biggest challenge of the Lazy Day Collection was creating an original design in a field where are thousands of different options. It had to be sophisticated and edgy at the same time. When Joao achieved the final design form, he immediately started the prototypes. He has developed a construction method that guarantees the sofa's sturdiness, mainly for the three-seat size. After that, the upholstery was also a challenge due to the sleek lines requiring immaculate stitching. All these problems are solved now, and the collection has been a success.
Research
The inspiration for our objects comes from the most unusual ways. But we are passionate about our work, and every time we have an idea, we give it a name and a number and explore it until its last consequences.
If it is original, we will find a way to make it. Sometimes it's a fast process; other times, it can take years, like this collection.
Designed for modern and contemporary living rooms, the Lazy Day Collection is perfect for being the space's centerpiece.
Joao Faria created this object in 2014 in Portugal. The prototype was made only em 2020, after some years of research and design maturation.
Inspiration
There is nothing like a rainy day, curling on your favorite sofa, warm and cozy with your significant other, watching a movie, reading a book, or surfing online. LAZY DAY is the perfect companion for those beautiful days. Enjoy it as we do.
Project Duration
Joao Faria drew the first sketches of this collection in 2014; however, he only made the prototype in 2020. After its launch in November 2020, Interior Design Magazine featured this sofa as a "statement seat".
Operation Flow
These sofas and armchairs are perfect for contemporary modern living rooms, as a set or individually.
