| DESIGN NAME: Pudica PRIMARY FUNCTION: Chair INSPIRATION: As a former Portuguese colony, the colonization of Brazil colonization was marked by an invention of identity from an intense Jesuit presence and religiosity. Brazil, in many ways, is a product of the counter-reformation and its strictures of discipline, rigor and a cloistered life. These created what we might call a Christian ministry, a Government of colonized souls, paving the way for the Pudica (modest) chair. With its minimalist, economic lines, it exudes a silent religiosity. UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The Pudica Chair is an artefact that seeks syncretism between the rationalist style of the early twentieth century and the Brazilian colonial experience, embodied in the severity and economy of its forms and in the rise of a possible transcendence. Containment of an excess that poses as a brand, the piece takes up "Brazilian" OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: - PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: - FITS BEST INTO CATEGORY: Furniture Design |
PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: The materials employed are drawn steel and sheet steel. Pudica is produced in shaped drawn steel that passes through welding processes. The seat is produced in sheet steel. There is the possibility of a brass version. SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES: 330 mm x 500 mm x 430 mm H (seat), 85 mm (back) TAGS: Chair, Brass, Brazil, Stackable, Steel, Brazilian, Rationalist RESEARCH ABSTRACT: - CHALLENGE: - ADDED DATE: 2017-04-07 13:23:39 TEAM MEMBERS (1) : Pedro Paulo Venzon.

NAME: Pedro Paulo Venzon PROFILE: The design studio of Pedro Paulo Venzon is fundamentally concerned with producing artifacts that give rise to esthetic, social and cultural discourses that permeate the universe of design. Devoted to a careful observation of the possibilities of rereading and displacement of Brazilian tradition, understood as second to its contemporaneity, the studio stretches the limits of identity practices and the delicate relationship between the vernacular and transnational. |
