About Toma Soffa

Soffa a ddyluniwyd ar gyfer mannau byw yw Toma. Daw ffurf Toma o'r syniad o lapio darn sengl o ffabrig o amgylch y sedd gyfan, yn null lliain crêp. Y canlyniad yw arwyneb di-dor gyda thonnau meddal sy'n amgáu'r person sy'n eistedd. Defnyddiwyd ffabrig ymestynnol i gyflawni'r arwyneb crwm cymhleth, a oedd yn anodd ei gynhyrchu. Mae Toma yn mesur 1580 mm o led, 950 mm o ddyfnder ac 850 mm o uchder. Mae'r dyluniad yn archwilio ffurf fwy rhydd ar gyfer dodrefnyn cyffredin.

It has become a unique sofaa with undulations.This project began with the question: could we express the commonplace piece of furniture that is the sofa in a freer form? The idea expanded from the thought that wrapping it in a single piece of fabric, like crepe, might yield an interesting shape, leading us to arrive at this form.

Production Technology
Creating the shape of the tertiary surface proved extremely challenging. It was achieved by employing stretch fabric.

Expressing the form of the cubic surface and realising it while utilising the engineers' skills proved extremely challenging. Through repeated discussions, we continued to seek the correct solution until completion was achieved.
