The Design

About Shi Bandeha sa Tsa

Ang Shi usa ka bandeha sa tsa nga gidisenyo alang sa pag-andam ug pagsilbi sa tsa. Ang Shi naghiusa sa usa ka natural nga bato nga disko uban sa aluminum nga chassis sa tubig. Ang ibabaw gibahin ngadto sa usa ka patag nga bahin ug usa ka giko nga bahin, nga adunay kalainan sa gitas-on nga 16 milimetro. Ang patag nga bahin nagpabilin nga uga ug naghawid sa tea set, samtang ang giko nga bahin nagkolekta ug nagdrena sa gigamit nga tubig. Ang drainage naa sa pinakaubos nga punto sa giko nga ibabaw, mao nga ang lebel sa tubig magpabilin nga makita ug ang bandeha mahimong hawanan sa hustong panahon. Ang bato gihulma pinaagi sa computer controlled nga pagputol ug gitapos pinaagi sa sandblasting.

Behind the Design

Unique Properties: Tea tray is usually plane and tea water flows everywhere when using under the condition, which brings inconvenience. The design inspiration comes from bridge, which integrates plane & concave and presents the tension of shape. The concave brings height difference, which not only realizes dry and wet depart, but also can be easy to drain water, while cleverly reminding the state of water storage.
Dimensions & Packaging: Product size Width 140mm x Depth 600mm x Height40mm
Package size Width 260mm x Depth700mm x Height80mm
Tags: tea tray, stone design, simple, natural interaction, instinct, light weight, different materials combination
Production Technology: Shi is made of natural stone and aluminum. The natural stone is treated by CNC and water knife cutting molding technology, which surface is realized by sandblasting technology. The aluminum is treated by die drawing and cutting technology, which surface is realized by matte painting.
Design Challenge: The concave curvature of natural stone plate should not only ensure the high efficiency of drainage, and the realization of modeling, but also satisfy the reminding of water level. Through the virtual simulation and physical model test, the radius of curvature of the concave surface is determined to be 212 mm finally.
Research: The tea tray design belongs to the application research, which object is to guide user behavior through the simplest language form, combining with ways of user interview, focusing group, product usability testing, consumer diary.
Inspiration: Shi is a kind of water storage tea tray, which is made of natural stone and metal (aluminum) water chassis, modeling simple. The disk is designed with drop type through the plane with concave surface, with height difference of 1.6 cm. The plane is used as dry areas, the concave as wet areas, which cleverly realizes tea-making scenarios of dry and wet depart. Besides, for the concave is lower, so we can visually see the tea overflowing from the drain, which prompts the user dumping of tea.
Project Duration: The project was started in xiamen in February 2019, completed in xiamen in September 2019 and exhibited in Shanghai in October 2019.
Operation Flow: The flat part of the tea tray is placed with the tea set and the concave part is the operating area. The height difference between the plane surface and concave surface allows an efficient drainage. When the water reaches three quarters of the tank, the user can visually observe the water level from the lowest point of the concave surface to facilitate the timely dumping.
