Side Table

Friday, 27 December 2024

Tai

Tai side table aims to effectively utilize retired substation metal sheets, extend the service life of the materials, and maximize the use of resources to reduce the burden on the environment. It only requires laser cutting and bending to finish the process and the flat-packed design can significantly reduce production time without assemble. The exterior lines are inspired from IM Pei's The Luce Chapel. It has the image of praying with folded hands in the East. Hope to create furniture that is easy to produce, beautiful, and eco-economical.

Stool

Layer

The project started with making furniture out of small-diameter trees and scrap wood. Wood in Okinawa is felled due to natural disasters and road expansion. However, in recent years, road expansion has decreased due to environmental considerations, so wood is also shrinking. To continue making Okinawa furniture, it was necessary to use small materials. Therefore, the Layer stool were created by combining various types of wood. It is made from upcycled waste. This design proposes a new value by reconstructing the waste material from Okinawan wood into blocks.

Mua Lau

As the world grapples with the rapid depletion of natural resources, contemporary designers are increasingly focused on exploring sustainable materials. One such example is the Mua Lau Chair, which draws inspiration from a beloved Taiwanese snack known for its distinctive texture of crispy exterior and soft, chewy interior. Sitting in this chair is akin to being transported to a serene bamboo forest, as the gentle breeze wafts over the body, fostering a deeper connection with nature.

The Collector

A wine cellar that draws all eyes. It is handmade and planned for a real wine lover. The combination of the burnished steel frames with partially colored insulating glass, make it look stable but at the same time airy. With special temperature control, this walk-in room provides enough space for cooling, storing and collecting wine. On the opposite side, there is a pivot door, also handmade of burnished steel. In the recesses of the door, the colored glass is found again.

Armchair

Hector

The focus of Hector armchair is to charm costumers who value details, vast mixes of materials and search for intriguing designs. To achieve this, the intention was to develop a system that allowed its arms made by solid wood to seemingly float around the soft tapestry assembled with concealed supports underneath and metal bars disguised as leather cufflinks. The plywood shells follow the lines of the seat and backrest which are esthetically linked with two posterior ornaments in casted aluminum, even though it's the tapestry box that accommodates the structure of the armchair.
