About Sketch Silff

Silff Fraslun yw silff drefnus o fewn anhrefn. Wedi'i gwneud trwy ddull dylunio digidol. Daw ysbrydoliaeth y dyluniad o sgerbwd dur adeilad sy'n cael ei adeiladu ar y safle adeiladu. Cyfunodd y dylunydd linellau i greu gofod storio trwy ddefnyddio algorithm. Gellir cyfansoddi llinellau'n fethodig mewn anhrefn. O bell, mae'n ymddangos fel llanast o linellau, ond mewn gwirionedd mae'n silff. Ac mae'r silffoedd arbennig hyn yn cynnig nid yn unig atebion wrth archwilio ansicrwydd, ond hefyd harddwch technoleg a chelf fodern.

The Recognition

About the Gwobr Arian A' Design Award

Mae Sketch Silff yn enillydd Gwobr Arian A' Design Award, cydnabyddiaeth hynod fawreddog a roddir i ddyluniadau o'r radd uchaf, hardd a thrawiadol. Mae enillwyr Arian yn weithiau tra disglair a hynod greadigol sydd yn darlunio arbenigedd, dawn a chraffter rhagorol eu dylunwyr. Disgwylir i Sketch Silff fod yn waith gwych ac esiampl, yn nodedig o broffesiynol ac yn ddwfn arloesol. Mae'r dyluniad buddugol hwn o Wobr Arian A' Design Award yn ddyfais hynod nodedig a edmygir sydd yn elwa ac yn symud ymlaen ffiniau celf, gwyddoniaeth, dylunio a thechnoleg. Mae Sketch Silff yn greadigaeth y cenfigennir wrthi yn eang, sydd yn deffro dyheadau, yn cyflwyno teimladau cadarnhaol ac yn cynnau rhyfeddod a syndod.

Behind the Design

Unique Properties
Designer combined line to create a space for storage by using algorithm. Line can be constituted methodically in chaos. Seen from a distance, it is a mess of lines, but it is actually a shelf. And these special shelf come out with not only answers of finding uncertainties, but also beauty of modern technology and art.
Dimensions & Packaging
812 mm * 424 mm * 1630 mm

shelf, line, office, commercial furniture, art furniture, digital design
Production Technology
Designer discuss the application of digital design method to give the product a new form of research. First, we build a framework of product form we want, and then use grasshopper software to generate some shapes randomly. Designers adjust these forms according to ergonomics, aesthetics, etc., and choose the style suitable for industrial mass production technology, and finally present a work.
Random forms are difficult to manufacture because they cannot be made directly after traditional engineering drawings. So we decided to break the whole into pieces of metal, and then connect the pieces.
Design Challenge
Social perspective. It can challenge the public's understanding of traditional shelves.
Technology implementation. During the design process, the computer will produce a lot of random structures, designers need to balance the relationship between these random forms and product forms. In addition, designers should balance these random forms with the realization of industrial mass production.
Research
Digital design, a dynamic design style, pursuing uncertainties, can create a huge amount of variate by logical algorithm, as well as interact with human. Therefore, these random states and results of a new sense of openness bring people in certain environment more space of imagination, which we believe will change our way of thinking someday.
Inspiration
The design inspiration of the shelf is the building steel skeleton under construction at the construction site. They are complex and orderly, order within chaos.
Project Duration
The project started in November 2019 in Hangzhou and finished in August 2020 in Hangzhou
Operation Flow
The shelf can hold things, crisscross lines can also hang things, and the top support leg can be exposed to hang clothes.
