Tropos Chair

Iludi Studio

Tropos, in itself, is change. It is where the object gains a new form through the simple substitution of a word. Metaphors, hyperboles, metonymies… A skin that designs the soul.

In the Tropos Collection, Estúdio Iludi seeks, through a few rhetorical strokes, tropical complexity. An irony in bringing to minimalism some of the peculiarities of the so-called and celebrated Brazilian identity.

What if, instead of curves, we spoke of folds? What if the structure sculpted in wood gained the delicacy, strength, and contemporaneity of steel with just a laminated covering? Inside the natural beauty, a rigid structure, shaped by time and resistance.

The “pluralidade brasilis” dictates the samba. The line comprises a chair, an armchair, and a multiple duo: a stool that serves as a side table and a bench that can be used as a coffee table. A sustainable syncretism that, even in straight forms, becomes organic.
