About Clip Aisialdiko besaulkia

Clip kanpoko zein barneko espazioetarako diseinatutako aisialdiko besaulki bat da. Clip-en forma paper-klip batean inspiratuta dago, besaulkiari itxura arin eta jostalaria emanez. Klip formako altzairuzko egiturak erabiltzailearen pisuaren arabera makurtzen da, esertzeko erosotasuna hobetuz. Eserlekuan dagoen metalezko barra kurbatuak begizta bat osatzen du, objektu txikiak eusteko balio duena. Besaulkia altzairuz egina dago, makurtze, soldadura, harea-jausketa eta hauts-estaldura bidez. Material bakar bat erabiltzeak ekoizpena sinple mantentzen laguntzen du eta birziklapena bultzatzen du.

Unique Properties: The chair features a unique clip-like structure that dynamically adjusts to the user's weight, resulting in an enhanced sitting experience. The seat's curved metal rod cleverly forms a loop, offering a handy storage option for small items.
Dimensions & Packaging: Dimensions: 29''W x 28.5''L x 34.5''H
Tags: chair, furniture, metal, creative, design, modern
Production Technology: Material: Steel. This design's production process involves four steps: bending metal pipes, welding, sandblasting, and powder coating. Despite its simplicity, these steps yield a visually striking piece of furniture that boasts both an artistic appearance and a relatively low production cost and difficulty. Also, the recycling process is significantly simplified, with only one material used throughout the chair's design.
Design Challenge: When creating the final prototype, it proved challenging to accurately determine the twisting angle and length of the steel rods for the backrest and seat portion. The calculations did not match the computer simulation precisely, making adjustments a significant obstacle to overcome.
Research: During the design process, a key consideration for me was how to make furniture more playful. Taking inspiration from the shapes of traditional outdoor chairs and everyday objects found in daily life, I created a form that strikes a balance between elegance and whimsy. The resulting design appears refined and delicate, yet also playful and lighthearted.
Inspiration: The Clip Chair is a versatile seating option that seamlessly transitions from outdoor to indoor environments. The design of this chair bears a resemblance to a paper clip, lending it a playful and whimsical aesthetic.
Project Duration: 12.2022
Brooklyn, New York
Operation Flow: A lounge chair fits both outdoor and indoor spaces great. While serving as a comfortable seat, it can also serve as a decorative piece in user's home.
