La directora de Modo de Vida, Bibi Liano, una de las principales publicaciones del continente americano sobre interiorismo y tendencias, nos adelanta la publicación de la silla Valentina de Sanserif Creatius en su número de Septiembre. Un asiento de edición limitada disponible ya en venta on line y contract, que se presentará en septiembre en la exposición My cHair needs a haircut, aunque ya está presente en espacios señeros de la península como el Parador de Cáceres.
Modo de Vida · Octubre de 2011
Extracto: La apuesta por materiales industriales sin tradición en el hábitat ha marcado las últimas colecciones de Sanserif Creatius. Dos versiones de este asiento se vieron en una exposición y un show-room monográficos sobre estos diseñadores que se inauguraron durante la Feria Hábitat.
Valentina, que así se llama el asiento, es deudora de la tradición medieval de sillas con respaldo alto y proporciones estilizadas, pero sobre todo, sigue la tendencia de piezas elaboradas en cartón ondulado que abogan por un hábitat más responsable. Más en Modo de Vida.

En la portada de Cultura de El Mundo, destacaba esta semana Bel Carrasco la silla Valentina que desarrollamos en Sanserif Creatius para la expo Three Little Pigs. Una pieza que vuelve a la actualidad tras convertirse en una de las referencias visuales del rediseño del Parador de Cáceres a cargo del equipo de El Corte Inglés y de Paradores.
El Mundo· 17/08/2011 p.11
Extracto: Se llama Valentina y es una silla con hechuras de trono que aspira hacer sentir a su usuario como un rey, última propuesta del estudio de diseño Sanserif Creatius. Tiene una clara inspiración medieval y también tipográfica, como la mayoría de muebles de este equipo de diseñadores formado por Ana Yago y José Antonio Giménez. En este caso, la letra «H» es la elegida como modelo.
La pieza se ha convertido en un referente en algunos espacios, como el Parador de Cáceres, ubicado en los Palacios de los Marqueses de Torreorgaz y de la llamada Casa de Ovando Mogollón, Pereo y Paredes. Son edificios góticos en su origen, que se han adaptado al siglo XXI con la hibridación de las últimas tecnologías en iluminación y confort, junto con la pervivencia de referencias históricas, desde armaduras a tapices, entre las que conviven las sillas diseñadas por Ana Yago en cartón ondulado.

The “Bold Chair” was a success creation by Sanserif Creatius in 2009 so they decided to have a second version of it called “Bold cHair”. It is a chair or bench in 100% biodegradable corrugated cardboard. Functional, economic and serialized production based on one single die.
First Look Magazine · nº95 p. 85
The chair is made of 5 mm. thick sheets and the standard model measures 50x63x72 cm., weighs 16 kg and has an estimated resistance of one thousand kg in compression tests; and now… with hair. The design is so funky and adds an original character to any room. More at First Look Magazine.

Green diary: An alphabet you can sit on by Sanserif Creatius mayo 27, 2011

Could you, even in your widest dream, think of chairs which are shaped in the shape of alphabets? I guess not. But this very thought have been turned into reality by Ana Yago, a Valencia based designer. She is also known as the founder of design house Sanserif Creatius.
Green diary · 20/05/2011
These alphabetically shaped chairs created by her, are all covered in fur. The purpose of creating these furry chairs was to showcase them in the Arquitécnica Gallery’s upcoming show, “My chair needs a haircut,” from September 16th to October 12th. The chairs have been made furry keeping in mind the theme of the show. But the alphabetical shape is not the only extraordinary feature of these chairs. The chairs have certain environmental values attached to them. All of these “alphabetical” chairs are made up of 100% biodegradable corrugated cardboards.
If you think these chairs were made keeping children in mind then you are wrong. Apart from having strong environmental values attached to them, the chairs also carry a message for today’s business peoples and that is to combine environmental and social responsibilities into everyday business practices. In order to strengthen that message, the chairs were all assembled in a special environment friendly center.

The buzzwords in design these days are “economic” and “ecological”. Throw in “functional”, “biodegradable” and assembly lines that “reinforce values of integration and respect” and you have a recipe for an object destined to appeal to today’s guilt-ridden, penny-pinching yet acquisitive and aesthetically minded consumer.
The Economist · 18/05/2011
So it was with some eagerness that I clicked on the image attachment of an e-mail press release for the Bold cHair by Sanserif Creatius, a small design firm based in Valencia, Spain. Created entirely of biodegradable corrugated cardboard (without screws and wedges) in “special employment centres” where labourers surely whistle while they work, the chair sounded so promising.
But tell me, dear reader, what do you make of this? I’m all for a bit of insouciance with a greenwash, but would it go with the rug?

At first glance the aesthetic value of this furry alphabet seat is somewhat questionable. But when you put this fuzzy little stool in the context of Arquitécnica Gallery’s upcoming show, “My cHair needs a haircut,” where the chair will be displayed from September 16th-October 12th, one can begin to appreciate the playful and almost satirical elements of the design.
Inhabitat · 20/05/2011
From materials to production and assembly, Ana Yago, the Valencia-based designer who started Sanserif Creatius, the studio behind the hair chair, has considered the environment every step of the way. The chair is made of 100% biodegradable corrugated cardboard and is assembled exclusively in a special employment center that reinforces ethical business practices that consider both environmental and social responsibility.

Yes, you have read the title correctly, and no it is not a case of poor grammar or typology: this article is about furry furniture, including sofas and chairs, suitable for any discerning living room!
Marquette Turner · 20/05/2011
“The Bold cHair” by Sanserif Creatius (pictured) is just one of the eye-catching, furry furniture designs that’ll be on display at “My cHair Needs a Haircut Exhibition” at Arquitécnica Gallery in Valencia, Spain to be held later this year.
The chair is both functional and economic, as well as being made of 100% biodegradable corrugated cardboard. And perhaps most importantly of all, its comfortable. One wonders, however, what furry, four-legged companions (for those of us that have them) would make of the furniture: something to snuggle into or imposing on their territory?

Chaise ou banc, la Bold cHair de Sanserif Creatius est en carton ondulé et 100% biodégradable. Sa consommation d’énergie et son impact sur l’environnement en général sont réduits pendant la production. Il ne nécessite d’ailleurs ni de vis, de cales etc.. Son assemblage est réalisé exclusivement dans des centres d’emploi spéciaux afin de renforcer l’intégration.

Un geste pour la planète, pour les plus démunis et pour votre déco: une bonne action en plein milieu de son salon ! Une petite laine confortable viendra réchauffer la Bold cHair pour les jours les plus frais.

Asientos con perchas, imantados o con ambiciones musicales… entre otras cosas, en las que incluso encontramos ventanas convertibles en balcón o la nueva decoración minimalista de Vitra. Esa es la esencia del mini-reportaje de Bulebbu sobre nuevas formas de entender el diseño y la innovación… y, entre ellos, han elegido el asiento Bold, una propuesta sostenible, arriesgada y con una evidente inspiración tipográfica que tiene su origen en Sanserif Creatius, un laboratorio de ideas con conciencia social.
Bulebbu · 06/05/2011
Extracto: En esta selección hemos reunido piezas que de alguna manera no son lo que parecen, bien porque no están hechas con los materiales habituales o bien porque su primera impresión no te desvela su verdadero ser. En el mundo del diseño innovar es un deber y estos diseñadores se lo toman al pie de la letra. Sillas hechas con perchas, mesas de billar camufladas… Nada es lo que parece, por eso antes de usar alguno de estos productos, asegúrate de que es lo que estás pensando.
