About Fs418 میز تحریر

FS418 میزی است که برای استفاده در دفاتر کار خصوصی طراحی شده است. فرم یکپارچه‌ی آن یادآور یک بلوک توپر از سنگ مرمر است. این میز از صفحات مرمر کاررا به ضخامت ۲ سانتی‌متر با سطحی ساب‌خورده ساخته شده که به‌صورت دستی مونتاژ می‌شوند، و بخش داخلی آن از چوب توپر زبان‌گنجشک با روکش لاک مشکی ساخته شده است. فضای نگهداری وسایل نوشتاری و اسناد به همراه پریزهای برق، HDMI و شبکه، در داخل بدنه پنهان شده است. صفحه‌ی روی میز را می‌توان به سمت کاربر کشید تا فضای نگهداری و پریزها نمایان شوند. کابل‌ها همواره پنهان باقی می‌مانند، به این ترتیب سطح میز تمیز و بدون درهم‌ریختگی باقی می‌ماند.

Production Technology
The table is crafted from marble selected personally from a quarry in Carrara. It features a lightweight construction using 2cm marble slabs with a honed surface, all assembled by hand. The interior is made of hand-selected solid ash wood, finished with black lacquer. The table includes technical features such as HDMI, RJ45, and two power sockets. The design is custom-made in terms of size, features, and materials to suit the specific project requirements.
Design Challenge
The hardest part was maintaining the vision of a forest walk experience through various spatial impressions abstract and non-specific enough to leave room for imagination. This allows viewers and users to anticipate these natural spaces genuinely. The focus was on exploring the concept of "space" itself. Balancing the abstract representation while ensuring functional design required overcoming creative and technical obstacles, such as material limitations and production capabilities.
Research
The research for this project was qualitative, aiming to find a marble pattern that fits the "Forest Walk" theme. The objective was to identify a marbling that mimics the look through forest branches. Methodology included extensive visual analysis and material sampling. Data collection involved visiting multiple quarries in Carrara, with the primary tools being visual inspection and photography. Participants included the client and the artist. Results showed that the selected marble met aesthetic and functional criteria, satisfying both stakeholders. Insights revealed the importance of material authenticity in enhancing thematic design. This research impacted the final work by ensuring a seamless integration of natural aesthetics into functional design, influencing both business outcomes and design standards.
Inspiration
My vision was to depict the user's life, highlighting the everyday work process and making it conscious. I aimed to focus on the actual goal of working. Typically, electronic devices with their cables, along with pens and papers, ... demand visual attention and cause distractions. I aimed to create a space where one can dive into creativity without interruption, yet without compromising the functionality of a workspace. Everything should be readily available but discreet. Undisturbed working.
Project Duration
The search for the perfect marble for this project was the most time-consuming part. The goal was to find a marbling pattern that, fitting the theme, resembled a view through the branches of a forest canopy. The extensive search paid off, and both the client and the artist were very satisfied with the final result, "Forest Walk." The total duration, including planning and consultation, was one year.
Operation Flow
The table functions like a regular desk. While seated, the user can pull the tabletop towards themselves to reveal the storage space and the built-in sockets. This allows for easy charging of devices like laptops or iPhones. The tabletop can then be fully closed, with only the necessary amount of cable visible thanks to the integrated cable management system. Excess cables remain hidden inside the table.

Additionally, containers lined with fine aniline leather can be removed from the table. These include document trays, pen holders, and storage compartments for office supplies such as staplers, paper clips, and hole punches.
