The Design

About Interweave Udstillingsskab

Interweave er et udstillingsskab designet til stuer og lobbyer. Skabet er sammensat af krydsende trælister placeret i forskellige vinkler, som danner et gitter, der fungerer som en semi-transparent barriere. Der anvendes to træsorter, valnød og bøg, så krydslinjerne varierer i farve og tilføjer en fornemmelse af dybde. Traditionelle tap- og taphulssamlinger forbinder hver liste, hvilket efterlader en glat overflade uden dyvler eller skruer. Genstande placeret indeni kan skimtes gennem gitteret, hvilket skaber en diskret udstillingsmetode. Skabet måler 1450 x 700 x 500 millimeter.

Production Technology
The cabinet is made by walnut and beech hardwood, using traditional mortise and tenon joints to combine all the different angled wooden strips, while maintaining a smooth exterior without the need for pegs or screws.
Design Challenge
The greatest challenge was to create a complex structure composed of different angled lines, all seamlessly joined through traditional joinery methods, resulting in a unified and fluid effect.
Research
To avoid the use of any screws between these sticks and seamlessly integrate every distinct stick angle, precision was crucial in ensuring the joints fit seamlessly. Given the grid structure encompassing the entire cabinet, we crafted numerous samples to guarantee a construction that is both sturdy and solid, striking a balance between various considerations.
Inspiration
The inspiration behind the Interweaving Cabinet design derives from the fusion of natural beauty and contemporary style. By selecting two different-colored woods, we've created a unique visual effect where intersecting wood grains form a complex yet harmonious pattern. These interwoven lines are not just design elements but also symbolize the blending and connection of different elements in life.
Project Duration
The project started in December 2021 in Hsinchu and finished in May 2022.
Operation Flow
The Interweave cabinet is ideally suited for placement in living rooms or lobbies, providing a space to showcase items. The interwoven structure of the cabinet creates an almost ethereal quality to its contents, making it suitable for displaying items of significance. It adds a veil to the showcased items, creating a new visual perspective.
