The designer Marko Stanojevic put on a show his impressive project – CILINDROLO, set of chairs.
This project was named by his good friend by merging together two Italian words CILINDRO (cylinder) and DONDOLO (rocking chair).
The initial idea was to start playing with basic geometric forms. Since the goal was to build a rocking chair, the iconic shape related to rolling motion was picked – the cylinder. Here comes the core of this project – two cuts are made along the surface and by pressing inwards the central section of the cylinder (the one between the two cuts), the seating part is created. Voila, the functional object! And with just one intervention form the designer
Same principle was used both for the armchair and for the puff, only the central parts were shaped differently. Everything else, like reinforcement inner and outer ring slices, rocking motion dampeners, perforated sheet and all the little things that came later were just additions to help the idea behind it come alive.
