O Design

Sobre Dango Cadeira Dobrável Multifuncional

Uma cadeira dobrável multifuncional para ambientes internos e externos que também pode se transformar em uma espreguiçadeira. Ela se dobra em uma embalagem plana e pode ser enviada facilmente. Inspirada na sobremesa japonesa chamada dango, a cadeira assume a forma deste petisco inspirador, especialmente quando está fechada em sua forma recolhida. O aspecto técnico desafiador deste design é garantir que o ângulo tanto na versão espreguiçadeira quanto na versão cadeira seja confortável e funcional com um único mecanismo de catraca. Levando em consideração que a cadeira deve ser leve para fins de transporte, sendo fabricada em espuma ecológica e alumínio com revestimento em pó.

Tecnologia de Produção: This multifunctional folding chair was designed out of necessity. There seems to be a gap with multifunctional designs for smaller homes or apartments that can be used for indoors and outdoors. The frame is made of lightweight aluminum powder coated with non toxic paint and sustainable fabrics or vegan leather for the upholstery. The foam used is Urecel QuickDry which is antibacterial, has no VOC, ecofriendly and high durability with a unique open cell structure that can dry very quickly. There is also a weaved version that use off cuts wastes collected from local factories.
Desafio de Design: Biggest challenge is ensuring that the angles for both dining and lounge version is comfortable for the user on a single ratchet. Tested several reclining angles by making small models and playing with the angles at different heights before finalizing on the prototype and ensuring it is ergonomically within the boundary. As this product is an in-house design for manufacturing, making sure the foam sourced is eco-friendly and local to reduce cost of production and carbon footprint.
Using eco-friendly fabrics with limited MOQs is a challenge because ensuring these variables do not delay the production timeline and costs.
Pesquisa: The objective of this product is fun and multifunctional for indoors and outdoors. Inspired by the simplicity of the shapes of Japanese snack dango. Started experimenting with packing foams and sticks to make the shapes and testing different angles to ensure the chair is supporting the recline position. Using aluminum frames and lightweight foam and eco-friendly materials an ideal aesthetic that serves both indoors and outdoors is crucial so a survey was conducted asking clients and subscribers and the results were unanimous love the multi-functionality, choice of colours and design of the chair.
Inspiração: The inspiration came from a Japanese dessert snack called dango. It is made up of a mix of rice flour and it's usually in 3-4 round shaped mochi served on a skewer. When folded the chair (profile view) takes the shape of the snack. Noda designs wanted to design a multifunctional folding chair that can convert to a lounge chair and can be used indoors or outdoors with eco friendly materials.
Duração do Projeto: The project started in September 2023 in Toronto and the prototype is made in Jakarta, Indonesia with our manufacturing company.
Fluxo de Operação: The chair is a simple folding chair, however, the ratchet that holds the two frames together has a latch internally that could help lower the seating and recline the back into lounge position. To store it away simply fold the chair and its form takes the shape of the dessert dango and is flat.
