Oleg Multifunctional Furniture by Andrea Cingoli

Home > Winners > #72567




DESIGN DETAILS
DESIGN NAME:
Oleg

PRIMARY FUNCTION:
Multifunctional Furniture

INSPIRATION:
During our life we change living space continuously, and everytime we want to characterize it with new and more interesting furniture solutions. It is similar to the biological way of adaptation of microorganisms. They can transform and combine themselves in many ways to find the best solution to live inside their environment, building new spaces and groups. In this furnishing system the randomness of the transformation can lead to new functions and new landscapes.

UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Oleg is a space virus! It is simple and complex at the same time. A wooden cubic or spherical container with many legs. It can change its function changing its position. It can colonize spaces with infinite combinations of modules. The legs allow it to be placed in different ways to create different furnitures: bedside table, coffee table, clothes hangers, container furniture, sideboard and much more depending on the randomness and the user's imagination.

OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION:
The weight of about 7 kg allows an easy positioning even by overlapping. By rotating the module, assembling it with tops of different sizes and combining it with other olegs, it is transformed into different types of furniture. By overlapping the modules, they lock by fitting the legs and the joint is stronger the more the containers are heavier. Colours and shape allow the aggregations to create scenographies similar to true works of art.

PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION:
The project started in july 2018 and finished in november 2018 in Teramo

FITS BEST INTO CATEGORY:
Furniture Design

PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY:
The product is designed to be produced in wood: depending on the performance characteristics sought, it can be built with panels in medium density or marine plywood and with a laminate finish or smooth or glossy lacquer. the legs are turned and lacquered elements with colored rubber ends to improve support. Furthermore, dowels, standard metal parts and screws tightened from the inside of the container are used in order to give maximum continuity to the external surface.

SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES:
Cube External side 45cm Internal side 35cm Sphere External diameter 45cm Internal diameter side 35cm Height with legs 70-85 cm depending on the position Width and depth depending on the configuration or the overlapped top. The oleg package covers the pre-assembled container compartment in which the legs are placed to be screwed on at the time of opening.

RESEARCH ABSTRACT:
The focus of the research was to obtain a versatile and economical device, which has the ability of being reconverted following the fluid needs of new lifestyles and, at the same time, appropriate for creating new domestic landscapes taking on shapes and dimensions indicated by the context and the imagination of the final consumer. To do this, we drew on the knowledge of the low-cost furniture and self-construction market, and on the architectural contaminations of contemporary flexible space.

CHALLENGE:
The biggest challenge was having to reconcile the idea of a modular and inexpensive product, with a unique aesthetic and functional result, because it was personally developed by the buyer and aesthetically decidedly scenographic.

As a design enthusiast, I am absolutely thrilled to see that the A' Design Award has been given to a multifunctional furniture design. It is so inspiring to witness the creative minds of today's designers and the innovative ideas that come from them. Oleg is a perfect example of how modern furniture can be functional yet still aesthetically pleasing. It is a true testament to the designer's vision and skill that this piece of furniture could be so versatile and attractive. I truly believe that this award is well deserved and I can't wait to see what else this designer has in store. Congratulations to Andrea Cingoli for their well-deserved success!

Oleg is truly a remarkable piece of furniture that has achieved an excellent balance between functionality and aesthetics. Its ability to morph into different shapes and sizes, depending on the user’s imagination and the context of the space, is remarkable and impressive. The research that went into its design and production, to create a modular and inexpensive product with a unique aesthetic, is highly commendable. The use of wood, dowels, metal parts and screws that are tightened from the inside of the container, lends to the unique look of the piece and its ability to transition between different functions. Oleg is an inspiring example of good design and a worthy recipient of the A' Furniture Design Award.
