The Design

About Wavy Lessenaar

Ontwerp is deur natuurelemente geïnspireer. Die skryftafel is geskep met behulp van watertema, om 'n gevoel van natuur na die huis te beweeg. Die bokant van die lessenaar skep 'n effek van rimpelings wat deur waterdruppel gemaak word. Skryftafelrand verrig 'n funksie. Dit laat nie toe om skryfvoorrade op die grond neer te val nie. Dit is ook as meditasie-instrument terwyl jy dink of ontspan, want daar is 'n moontlikheid om klein albasters langs die lyne te rol. Lessenaar is gemaak van nie-poreuse materiaal, so dit bied meer moontlikhede en baie meer vryheid. Gebruiker kan dus met skootrekenaar werk of met waterverf verf.
