RM57 is the name of an upholstered armchair from a collection of furniture designed by Professor Roman Modzelewski, offered by VZÓR from 2016.
RM57 is an expression of passion for abstract forms, key to art and design by Roman Modzelewski. It stands out from the furniture by this author for its exploration of composition, with the primacy of geometry of forms using simple diagonal lines. Design thinking resulted in a formally attractive and comfortable single upholstered seat by Modzelewski.
The first test implementation of the armchair under the VZÓR brand took place in 2012. Work on the seat form led to introduction of many modifications invisible to the eye but important from the perspective of ergonomics and performance. Use of industrial manufacturing technologies allowed to avoid constraints related to craft manufacturing and to offer a product with fixed quality parameters which can be produced fast and relatively cheap, in large batches. Complete redesign of the seat manufacturing technologies, in particular its internal structure, enabled us to offer a product faithful to the original that at the same time guarantees surprising comfort.
The armchair implementation, in particular the selection of manufacturing technologies and materials assuming redesign of selected technical parameters in order to improve the armchair’s functional and aesthetic value, is a model example of Vzór brand operation and its approach to building its collection.
