Constructed from hundreds of small reclaimed wood slats, this armchair embodies the intuitive building logic that inspired the Favela model. Each element is individually nailed and assembled by hand, forming a dense architectural composition reminiscent of the layered structures of Sao Paulo informal settlements. Executed in the style of the Campana brothers, the piece merges raw materiality with sculptural experimentation, reflecting a radical approach to craft and social narrative. Height 34 in. Width 26 in. Depth 24.5 in. Seat Depth 20.5 in. Seat Height 18.5 in.
