The Design
About Tie Bank
Tie is 'n houtbank wat ontwerp is vir twee mense om langs mekaar te sit. Die sitplek en rugleuning is met die hand uit 'n soliede blok hout gekerf, dus word geen gebuigde hout, kussings of vere gebruik nie. Tradisionele Japannese handskaafmesse en messe vorm die kurwes en hou die natuurlike skoonheid van die hout sigbaar. Die geboë rugleuning laat twee mense wat saam sit toe om na aan mekaar te rus. Tie is geskik vir eet, lees met die bene uitgestrek, of lê in verskillende posisies. Die huidige vorm is in 2020 in Tokio, Japan, voltooi.

- Usingtraditional Japanese hand tools, the beautiful lines of our furniture are individually hand carved, and not bent, to showcase the natural beauty of wood.
We don't use automation machines, but we are developing them as a product. - Design Challenge
- It is a chair that requires daily training and skill as a craftsman. From the first model to the current model, it took us seven years to create the current model.
The chair is not only beautiful, but it is also very comfortable to sit in and to touch. - Research
- Every part of the product should have a meaning.It should have an excellent function.This is the ultimate in simplicity.We believe that the pursuit of simplicity results in beautiful design.
- Inspiration
- The tie chair 2020 is carved with the concept a chair that helps couples get along. Furniture meant to rest one's body, we believe the chair's height and angle of the seating and coping boards, the strength to withstand weight and body movement and other components allow for infinite possibilities.
We feel that pursuing the beauty of the chair, to all intents and purposes, is as important as the function it serves. We want it to satisfy the space and time we spend on it to be elegant and meaningful.
As a seating for dining or to kick up your feet to enjoy your favorite book, it should suite any desired situation comfortably. - Project Duration
- The "tie chair 2020" in its current form was completed in 2020 after repeated model changes since 2013. It is manufactured in Tokyo, Japan.
- Operation Flow
- The tie chair can be used in the same way as a standard wooden bench.
You can sit comfortably with your legs stretched out, or you can lie down and assume various positions. - Image Credits
