Production Technology

It’s made with a monocoque structure in polyamide reinforced with 20 percent glass fiber. The backrest has an original surface characterized by rounded micro reliefs designed to reduce the supporting surface, thus favoring the natural transpiration of the body. The curves and inclination of all surfaces ensure maximum ergonomic comfort. The design of the armrests, as well as that of the structure of the legs and their particular inclination, have been conceived to optimize the vertical stacking of up to 10 chairs; the joint system has also been optimized to connect the seats horizontally both with and without armrests.

Design Challenge

Making a chair in a single plastic body has some technical difficulties due to the characteristics that a community chair must have. Calculating thicknesses, comply with all the international rules and standards and keep an attractive design is the real challenge.

Project Duration

The project startet in March 2020 in Ponsacco (PI) and finished in December 2021 in Ponsacco (PI)

Operation Flow

Mama has all the characteristics of the community chair: combinable in rows, stackable, with and without armrests.

Research

Analysis of chairs on the market with similar proposals and features. Our intent was to reduce the components to achieve the same goal.

Inspiration

The main source of inspiration was making a lightweight chair in single-piece. The seatback has a surface inspired by the surface of the sea.

Project Overview

Mama Community Chair has been a Silver winner in the Office Furniture Design award category in the year 2021 organized by the prestigious A' Design Award & Competition. The Silver A' Design Award celebrates top-tier designs that embody excellence and innovation.
