el masivo // 2014 // not in production, seeking manufacturer // el masivo translates to 'the big'. this design was created as an oversize chair that physically translated to a loveseat, although not technically. the oversize cushions provide for a surface on all sides to rest against. the idea was to create a comfortable chair for 2. one can also lay backwards and dangle their legs over the sides or the back cushions. this design uses significantly less material than traditional upholstery, making it a more sustainable product. the construction technique and general design for the el masivo can be applied to a 2 seater and 3 seater sofa as well.
