The Design

About Liyue Fauteuil

Liyue est un fauteuil qui allie les traditions du mobilier chinois à une forme d'inspiration Bauhaus. Le design puise dans l'ancienne culture chinoise des rites et de la musique et en reflète le sens de l'ordre et du rythme. La structure des sièges traditionnels en bois est conservée, tandis que les matériaux modernes permettent au fauteuil de s'intégrer aux intérieurs contemporains. Les pièces en polypropylène et en polyamide recyclables sont façonnées par usinage à commande numérique. Le dossier ferme et incurvé soutient le corps et convient à des morphologies variées. Le fauteuil mesure 550 x 450 x 750 mm.

Behind the Design

Unique Properties: The formation background of Chinese "LIYUE" is based on the harmony between heaven and earth, the spirit of "music" and the natural order of heaven and earth. "Harmony" (the spirit of Music), so everything can be incarnated. Designers grab the beauty of rules and rhythms in the "etiquette and music culture" to create this chair that combines Chinese and Western cultures, and continue the etiquette and music culture developed with human civilization in an innovative form.
Dimensions & Packaging: Product size: 550 mm x 450 mm x 750 mm
Tags: Bauhaus, Furniture, Chinese Style, Jane, Product, Man-Machine, Combination of Chinese and Western
Production Technology: Liyue adopts more modern production materials, which not only retains the structure of traditional wooden seats, but also facilitates the integration of products into modern interior decoration without being abrupt.
The distance from the stool face of the chair to the ground and the whole height form a ratio of 9:37. At the same time, the distance from the dummy standard line at the waist to the ground and the whole height form an approximate golden ratio of 5:8.
Design Challenge: Good design means as few designs as possible, which is also the consistent design concept of Liyue.
Research: The firm and accurate arc backrest keeps the body against the curve to ensure that the user can get effective support when lying down. The circular arc shape maximizes the user's reclining space, enables the chair to adapt to people of different body types, and ensures that every user can get the best care.
Inspiration: This is a Chinese armchair with Bauhaus style. It gives new life to Chinese furniture with the main tone of ancient Chinese "LIYUE" culture and the simple modern style.
Project Duration: The project was launched in Nanchang, China in December 2021 and completed in Nanchang, China in February 2022.
Operation Flow: Polypropylene environmental protection plastic material is processed by CNC machining center, which can achieve 99.9% recycling rate. Some ingredients are American DuPont PA materials, which are non-toxic, odorless, 100% recyclable and conform to the concept of sustainable development.
It is the minimalism that Liyue pursues by simplifying parts and components and maximizing the ease of use of products to achieve beautiful and durable results.
