guscyo chair by olga ribeiro from portugal
designer's own words:
The Guscyo Chair is meant for young and dynamic people, ages between 12 and 18, who have a strong grasp on the future and an open minded attitude. Teenagers who enjoy being with their friends, new experiences and sensations through the interaction with objects.
The object was thought to be inserted in urban and cosmopolitan ambiences. Colourful atmospheres in which the objects play a main role and seduce us, by their presence.
The Guscyo Chair is composed by two distinct parts that can work together or separately. One is the seat, that can by itself be placed on the floor, or be combined on the top of the structural part, functioning as a standing chair. The structural part can be used as a table when the seat is on the floor.
The seat is intended to be produced in polypropylene by injection moulding technology, because of its closed shape the object must be achieved trough two moulds. The structure/table is shaped in painted, moulded plywood.
