About Cloud Stoel
Cloud is 'n stoel geïnspireer deur 'n reënbui wat oor die kus van die Okinawa-eiland in Japan gesien is. Die sitoppervlak word gemaak deur poliëstervesel met 'n naald in poliuretaanskuim in te steek, wat 'n sagte wolkagtige voorkoms skep. 'n Hoë sitplek gee die persoon wat sit 'n swewende gevoel. Spieëlagtige vlekvrye staal pote en 'n voetstuk word gevorm uit dun ronde stawe wat vallende reën uitbeeld. Die aantal, lengte en deursnee van die stawe is sorgvuldig bepaal. Cloud word met die hand vervaardig uit vlekvrye staal, poliëstervesel, hout en poliuretaanskuim.

- I feel like the products in the world are now uniform.
Different regions have their own culture and nature.
Among them, I paid attention to nature.
I think of naturally inspired designs.
After that, repeat the verification of the material and structure.
I will announce the created design to the world and aim for commercialization.
I believe that doing so will enrich the uniform world. - Inspiration
- The sky is connected everywhere in the world.
Many people have seen clouds.
A design inspired by nature will resonate with various people.
I live on Okinawa Island south of Japan.
One day, I saw a moving cloud while it rained on the coast.
The idea of this chair came up from the scenery at that time. - Project Duration
- The project started in April 2019 and ended in October 2019.
- Operation Flow
- I think there are many people who have imagined when they were children that they could sit on clouds.
I realized that imagination.
