DESIGN NAME: Vague
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Stool
INSPIRATION: Vague is French for wave - a name inspired by the rising curves of a water droplet falling into a river, where a perfect, vibrant and continuous ripple takes shape. The piece’s visual lightness embraces only the bare essential for its purpose, and that inspiration stemmed from carefully observing nature’s wisdom.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Vague is a de-constructed stool with structural curves which form its shape. An astonishing piece of furniture, for every different angle from which it is seen reveals a harmonious composition.
The metal-cast stools bring out the poetry of what was the sketch inception; lines previously drawn morph into tubes and highlight the environment as a ready-to-enjoy object of art.
OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: Vague can be used as a simple stool but also as a piece of art, as its beauty creates a great highlight on environments.
PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: Vague was designed in São Paulo on April 2020 and has been produced in southern Brazil since August.
FITS BEST INTO CATEGORY: Furniture Design

PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: Vague uses as material steel tubes with 5/16 inch diameter and the production is made by bending and welding (TIG type).
After that, it receives an electrostatic paint or a copper coating finish.

RESEARCH ABSTRACT: Vague was inspired by nature, combining the structure of the leaves with the rising curves of a water droplet falling into a river, where a perfect, vibrant and continuous ripple takes shape.
CHALLENGE: The hardest part of creating Vague was the cad 3d modeling.
Several studies have been done to achieve the perfect shape.
