Stellar - Chair

Stellar, like a star.

Stellar (stĕl′ər) [derived from the Latin word Stellaris] “Relating to, involving, or resembling a star or stars, or comparable with stars for beauty and quality”.

In this case, a timeless design meant to be used on a daily basis, where its stellar lines serve both functional and aesthetic purposes. A shape conceived from childhood memories, where the comfort of those traditional wooden school chairs from the 1950s with their humble, functional use of materials has been reinvented into the 21st-century stackable monoblock plastic chair.

The strong lines shared with modern fighter planes and military decorations are decontextualized and put together to form a peaceful inviting multi-functional design. The star-like, triangular volumes on the rear and bottom parts emphasize the load-bearing function of these structures and form a pleasant aesthetic contrast with the soft and welcoming ergonomics of both the seat and backrest.
