About Sama Serye Sa Muwebles

Ang Sama usa ka tinuud nga serye sa muwebles nga naghatag gahum, kasinatian sa emosyon ug pagkalainlain pinaagi sa dyutay, praktikal nga porma ug kusug nga biswal nga epekto. Ang inspirasyon sa kultura nga gikuha gikan sa balak sa mga whirling costume nga gisul-ob sa mga seremonya sa Sama giinterpretar ang laraw niini pinaagi sa usa ka dula nga conic geometry ug metal nga mga teknik sa pagliko. Ang postura sa pagkulit sa serye gihiusa sa kayano sa mga materyales, porma ug mga pamaagi sa paghimo, aron matanyag ang pagpaandar & amp; mga kaayohan sa aesthetic. Ang sangputanan usa ka moderno nga serye sa muwebles nga naghatag usa ka lahi nga paghikap sa mga wanang sa pagpuyo.

Production Technology: Sama series is produced through a combination of industrial and craft production processes. The legs are shaped through metal bending processes and welded to a metal base plate, whereas the solid wood parts are first laser cut and then shaped and veneered by local craftsmen. Electrostatic paint applied to steel tube legs, usage of birch plywood in wooden parts and the application of high caliber, thick, natural wood veneer ensures quality, durability and longevity.
Design Challenge: The major challenge of the project was related to metal production possibilities and technology that was accessible. The main obstacle that had to be overcome was finding a way to produce the bent metal legs in the exact dimensions and bending angles that were desired, using machine assisted craft techniques. This was overcome through many trials and errors through an ongoing experimentation with the local craftsmen.
Research: The aim was to transform the cultural inspiration found in the poetry of Sama ceremonies into a functional, modern and minimal furniture series with a unique expression. The conic geometry of the whirling costumes was interpreted in the leg form as 2 opening leg parts that follow the silhouette of a cone. By changing the base diameter and the height of the cone, many modelling trials and prototypes were made with the local craftsmen, in order to optimize the dimensions of the series, to make the furniture pieces balanced, comfortable and easy to use as well as to give the desired visual effect.
Inspiration: Inspired by the poetry of whirling costumes worn in Sama ceremonies, the design plays with the geometry of conic sections and makes use of metal bending processes to reinterpret this cultural inspiration through minimal forms that provide a unique touch to living spaces. Produced by skilled wood and metal craftsmen, the collection stands at the intersection of craft production and modern design, aiming to unite craftsmanship traditions of the past and modern aesthetics of the present.
Project Duration: The project started in April 2018 in Istanbul and the furniture series were produced and launched in January 2019. Sama furniture series has been awarded Superior Design Award in Design Turkey 2019. They were exhibited in Design Week Turkey between November 14-17, 2019, at Halic International Convention & Exhibition Center, Istanbul.
Operation Flow: Sama series provides functionality, emotional experience and uniqueness through its minimal, practical forms and strong visual effect. The small surface of the coat stand serves as a convenient place to free hands when taking your coat off and the small stool can also be used as a side table. The simple minimal forms provide ease of use and cleaning as well as easy disassembly for renewal & recycling. Provides customization according to user needs and desires by veneer, color and dimension alternatives.
