About Cecilia Poltrona
Cecilia è una poltrona realizzata con materiali riutilizzati e di scarto. La struttura è costruita con doghe pressate di legno di recupero, sagomate con piedi ampi e una seduta larga in modo da poter impiegare anche ritagli corti. Lo schienale è formato da piccoli pezzi di tessuto avanzato, legati a una base flessibile con imbottitura in schiuma all'interno, creando un volume morbido e un comfort maggiore. La seduta è in pelle di scarto, che può accogliere toppe e dettagli, rendendo così ogni poltrona unica. La forma bassa e reclinata invita al riposo e segue uno stile scandinavo.

- Production Technology
- Structure in pressed pieces of wood from reuse, Backseat a flexible base where small pieces of fabric were tied with a foam inside, and seat made by leather.
- Design Challenge
- The challenge was to use left over fabric for the backseat and left over wood for the structure. For the backseat we used a flexible base where small pieces of fabric were tied, creating an aesthetic volume an comfort while in use. For the structure, I designed larger feet and seat, that allowed me to use left over wood slats pressed.
- Research
- The research was made about types of sustainable and recycled materials, that could work in an aesthetic and functional way.
- Inspiration
- Inspired on the scandinavian style and with sustainable solutions, the armchair is a tribute to my grandmother, who was in love with handmade works, reflected on the backseat. She also loved nature and was short, that is why the armchair was made in a sustainable way and its design is lower, thought to be easier to use, welcoming and comfortable.
- Project Duration
- Started in November 2019 in Sao Paulo and finished in january 2020 in Santa Catarina.
- Operation Flow
- A lower armchair, made of comfortable materials to rest.
