About Liyue Leunstoel

Liyue is 'n leunstoel wat Chinese meubeltradisies met 'n Bauhaus-geïnspireerde vorm kombineer. Die ontwerp is ontleen aan die antieke Chinese rituele- en musiekkultuur en weerspieël die sin vir orde en ritme daarvan. Die struktuur van tradisionele houtsitplekke word behou, terwyl moderne materiale die stoel in staat stel om by hedendaagse interieurs in te pas. Herwinbare polipropileen- en poliamiedonderdele word deur rekenaarbeheerde masjinering gevorm. Die stewige geboë rugleuning ondersteun die liggaam en pas by mense van verskillende groottes. Die stoel meet 550 by 450 by 750 mm.

"Harmony" (the spirit of Music), so everything can be incarnated. Designers grab the beauty of rules and rhythms in the "etiquette and music culture" to create this chair that combines Chinese and Western cultures, and continue the etiquette and music culture developed with human civilization in an innovative form.

Production Technology
Liyue adopts more modern production materials, which not only retains the structure of traditional wooden seats, but also facilitates the integration of products into modern interior decoration without being abrupt.
The distance from the stool face of the chair to the ground and the whole height form a ratio of 9:37. At the same time, the distance from the dummy standard line at the waist to the ground and the whole height form an approximate golden ratio of 5:8.
Design Challenge
Good design means as few designs as possible, which is also the consistent design concept of Liyue.
Research
The firm and accurate arc backrest keeps the body against the curve to ensure that the user can get effective support when lying down. The circular arc shape maximizes the user's reclining space, enables the chair to adapt to people of different body types, and ensures that every user can get the best care.
Inspiration
This is a Chinese armchair with Bauhaus style. It gives new life to Chinese furniture with the main tone of ancient Chinese "LIYUE" culture and the simple modern style.
Project Duration
The project was launched in Nanchang, China in December 2021 and completed in Nanchang, China in February 2022.
Operation Flow
Polypropylene environmental protection plastic material is processed by CNC machining center, which can achieve 99.9% recycling rate. Some ingredients are American DuPont PA materials, which are non-toxic, odorless, 100% recyclable and conform to the concept of sustainable development.
It is the minimalism that Liyue pursues by simplifying parts and components and maximizing the ease of use of products to achieve beautiful and durable results.
