The Design

About Rin Vertoonrak

Rin is 'n vertoonrak gemaak van Sendan-hout van die Okinawa-prefektuur. Die ontwerp van die pilare is geïnspireer deur die landskap van Japannese bamboesbosse. Elke pilaar word gevorm deur vier ysterstawe van verskillende lengtes aan 'n staalplaat te sweis. Die pilare word met skroewe aan die hout vasgemaak, wat ook help om te verhoed dat die massiewe hout vervorm. Die hout word onverwerk gelaat, sodat die lengte en dikte daarvan varieer en die natuurlike vorm van elke plank sigbaar bly. Boeke en klein items kan tussen die pilare geplaas word. Die aantal pilare kan vermeerder word om by die ruimte te pas.

Unique Properties
Since the wood is not processed, the length and thickness vary, allowing you to enjoy a variety of solid wood shapes and expressions. You can put books or small items between the pillars. Each pillar has a different shape, so it's fun to assemble while choosing. By increasing the number of pillars to match the space, you can create a shelf with a different look.
Dimensions & Packaging
Width 2000mm, depth 500mm, height 1030mm

Production Technology
This shelf is made from ''Sendan'' wood from Okinawa Prefecture. The pillars are made by randomly welding four iron rods of different lengths to a steel plate. This shelf was created by a designer.
Design Challenge
It is about maintaining strength and stability against back and forth swaying. Strength can be increased by increasing the angle of the iron rod, increasing the number of columns, or placing it next to a wall. By fixing the iron plate to the wood with screws, it stabilizes the shelf while preventing the solid wood from warping.
Research
Fascinated by the natural texture of solid wood, we came up with a design that did not require any processing on the wood. It has a simple structure, consisting of a pillar made of four iron rods welded to a steel plate, which is fixed to wood with screws. By supporting the heavy solid wood with thin pillars, we have created a structure that gives the impression of lightness.
Inspiration
This is a shelf made from ''Sendan'' wood from Okinawa. The pillars were inspired by the landscape of Japanese bamboo forests. This will raise the awareness of consumers and manufacturers about saving wood resources, and will make proposals for environmentally friendly manufacturing.
Project Duration
The project started in December 2021 and ended in February 2024.
Operation Flow
To assemble, fix the pillars in the desired position with screws. You can increase or decrease the number of shelf posts. The purpose is to place pottery and sculptures and enjoy the interior.
