CARBON FROG By Living Divani
CARBON FROG is the woven armchair available for indoor and outdoor.
Supporting frame in carbon fiber obtained by aluminum molds, developed with tubular parts with a thickness ranging from 2 to 3mm, hand-shaped with multi-axial and unidirectional fabrics, overlapping orthogonally, and reinforced in the areas of greatest stress. The structure has undergone a polymerization cycle in an autoclave at high temperature at constant pressure to ensure structural rigidity and significantly lighten the weight. Finish with polished transparent, red paint, RAL-K7 3007 Black Red, RAL-K7 7022 Umbra Grey or RAL-K7 5011 Steel Blue. Woven with black, red, bordeaux, grey or blue flat polyester cord.
To celebrate its twentieth anniversary, Frog has been updated with new finishes.
The structure can be painted with epoxy powders in the colours Canne de Fusil, RAL K-7 9017 Matt Black or RAL K-7 9010 White.
Full braiding on warp and weft for the cellulose rope version; or the very elegant version with leather scooby braiding, which reveals its character only at close quarters.
The most avant-garde version is CARBON FROG: the design and the research into materials remain the same, with braiding in flat Nylon collar rope. Black.
The starting point was a 3D scan of the original version; a number of assembly options compatible with Carbon were evaluated, and specific software was used to create the mould for the chair. The mould is made from aluminium, using 5-axis numerical control cutting, and polished to give the Carbon an initial surface finish.The structure of the chair, made by highly qualified personnel, is entirely hand-worked with multiaxial and unidirectional fabrics, superimposed orthogonally, to make the structure more rigid, preserving strength and reducing weight.
Developed using a 2/3 mm thick circular tubular, the structure has been reinforced at the points of highest stress and has undergone a curing cycle in a high-temperature autoclave at constant pressure.
