Furniture series

various measures

 

/
A furniture series based on the conceptualization of a splint used for finger injuries. This series was designed to replicate the logic of an object from a flat steel sheet, which, through the folding of its parts, becomes a piece of furniture.

Conceptual project, developed in collaboration from the original idea of the artist Benjamín Urzúa Castillo, and which reached the final prototyping stages for two pieces of the complete series.

I’m an industrial designer graduated from Universidad Diego Portales and currently based in Santiago, Chile. My work lies at the intersection of conceptual thinking—an observation of something—and functionality. There is a concern that the results, through details, are synthetic: that they respond to a simple, straightforward formal language that is open to interpretation but effectively meets its functional objectives.
