About Push Collection 扶手椅

Push系列係一個以可疊放扶手椅為核心嘅模組化座椅系列。扶手椅嘅設計簡約至極致，以呈現每個元素嘅本質。整件作品只採用兩種物料：框架採用可完全回收嘅壓鑄同擠壓鋁材，而座墊布料則採用由回收PET膠樽製成嘅科技面料。只需更換座椅框架嘅幾個部件，就可以生產出四款產品：單椅、扶手椅、無背座椅同雙座位扶手椅。呢個系列將簡約造型、可持續性同耐用性融為一體。

Unique Properties: It’s a project that doesn’t look at the design as a pure creative expression, but rather identifies an essential and indispensable factor into sustainability. The armchair is made up of two materials: aluminium for the frame, a 100% recyclable material, and technical fabrics for the upholstery obtained from the recycling of PET. Another main feature is its modular aspect which allows to obtain more items with the same few elements.

Production Technology: The whole collection is made up of 2 materials: die-cast and extruded aluminium for the frame, while for the upholstery has been identified technical fabric obtained from PET recycling (plastic bottles) with high technical characteristics.
Design Challenge: Finding a technical solution capable of merge at the highest-level aesthetic, comfort and sustainability, which would also allow the creation of multiple items using few basic elements. Starting from the seat’s frame and replacing some parts, could be obtained 4 items: chair, armchair, stool and two-seater armchair.
Research: The initial goal of the project was to do a visually light armchair approaching the concept of minimalism. The aim was to remove all that was useless in order to find the right aesthetic balance, thus enhancing the product essence. The sustainability was the other goal. The aluminium together with the upholstery made of recycled PET guarantee the necessary sustainability and robustness features. All this, together with its modular aspect, translates into a substantial saving of production resources and to the consequent reduction of investment costs.
Inspiration: In the genesis of this project there is certainly a strong minimalist influence. The idea that Moredesign tried to translate into form concerns exactly the reduction of the armchair design to a minimum in order to lay bare the essence of the elements. A representative example of this purpose, from a design point of view, it the version in which the backrest has no upholstery.
Project Duration: The project started in October 2019 and finished in March 2021. Padova Italy
