KNOOD CHAIR Nº1/

The objective in furniture design was to define a piece of furniture intended for rest and comfort. For this reason, textile elements were chosen to create a comfortable, warm and pleasant piece of furniture for the user.

The lateral structure carries the weight to the ground and the slats on which the seat is placed contribute to the stability of the chair.

In addition, a value proposal that we wanted to add to the design of the chair is its removable capacity. For this reason, a system was devised so that the chair can be easily assembled and disassembled.
In this way, its transport is an advantage not only for the user, but also in the case of industrial production.

The chair is divided into several simple pieces that fit together and are held together by a screw system. In addition, the churro that creates the seat using knots is proposed as a cushion that can be removed from the chair to clean it, or even exchange it.

To improve its finish and increase its durability, all the wooden pieces of the furniture were beveled to prevent breakage and were impregnated with a mixture of wax and oil in a bain-marie in equal parts. This mixture allows a wood finish that is lighter than the varnish and increasing the durability of its maintenance.
