Research
As for wooden furniture, wood-based panels are usually composed of plane basic elements, sometimes adding a curved element at best. If the material is solid wood, you can add elements such as lines and original wood grain. We give wood a new curved 3D style, which is in line with the organic concept on the other hand. We also added some undulating textures to make the table more hierarchical visually.
Inspiration
Inspired by designers' long-term thinking on solid wood furniture, it always presents a stable and quiet atmosphere. Therefore, the design extends the modeling atmosphere of wood furniture with a sense of orientation with the style of curved surface, adheres to the concept of organic, and creates a comfortable and relaxed living atmosphere. Based on the modern life scene, integrate the required functions.
