About Obon میز قهوه‌خوری

اوبون مجموعه‌ای از سه میز قهوه‌خوری است که از سرامیک با رویه‌ای لعاب‌دار ساخته شده‌اند. این مجموعه از تراکوتا، ماده‌ای باستانی و نامنظم، الهام گرفته است. هر میز به‌صورت دست‌ساز تولید می‌شود، بنابراین هر قطعه منحصربه‌فرد است. سه اندازه شامل یک میز مستطیلی و دو میز مربعی است که راه‌حل‌های متفاوتی برای پروژه‌های طراحی داخلی ارائه می‌دهند. فرم‌ها نرم و اندکی نامنظم هستند و سطح بدنه صاف است. پایه ضخیم در حین تولید با مواد خام پر می‌شود تا پایداری افزایش یابد. رویه لعاب‌دار به‌راحتی تمیز می‌شود و در برابر لکه مقاوم است.

Production Technology
The tables’ design is the result of a patient process of combining shapes and volumes. Their graphical purity blends into the structure of ceramics creating a unique mix of new and antique. The choice of terracotta came naturally with the drawings and outlines of the tables. From the beginning, the idea was to introduce a series of objects which appeared to be handmade and that could create a natural and gently imperfect tone. I wanted to make the object look beautiful for its spontaneity and genuineness, not for its complexity.
Design Challenge
The search for the right finish and the technical development of such large volumes in a material that is difficult to control represented a real challenge in terms of serial production and probably contained a good dose of innovation even for an experienced professional like Luigi. The problem was not only producing a perfect Obon Table, it was more about replicating them with the same quality, refining the technique day after day.
Research
We went through many samples of the material and tested more than twenty finishes both glazed, for the top, and natural for the edge and the base. Together with Luigi Bertapelle, an expert ceramicist in Veneto (Italy), we experimented with a new process of antiquing the surface of the terracotta. We worked on its tactile aspect with the inclusion of various thicknesses of chamotte, aiming to generate a perfect mix between the present and the past. It was fundamental to enclose such a graphically "educated" product in a special surface!
Inspiration
The tables are inspired by an ancient, earthy, irregular material: terra-cotta. With its origins lost in the mists of time, terracotta is at the base of millenary archaeological finds all over the world. These precious discoveries are evidence of our timeless creativity and desire to leave a sign, admire and ritualize
Project Duration
The Obon tables were exhibited in Salone del Mobile in April 2018. The project started 6 months prior to that in a little town in the region of Veneto, called Nove which is very famous for its ceramic.
Operation Flow
The Obon tables are small versatile coffee tables which can live in many different environments and interior design projects due to their very simple and soft silhouettes. The thick base is filled during the production process with raw material to give it a higher stability and the top surface has a glazed finish to make it easy to clean and to preserve its genuine beauty forever.
