Production Technology
It is realized with Corian material. There is also a plywood version of the side table.
Design Challenge
We think that the interaction of design and art is an important factor. In addition to its function, the design should also be loaded with a cultural message and emotion. The 'CUBE' coffee table form gives messages to the user by referring to the golden ratio and the sculptures of Mangiarotti.
Research
264/5000
Durability and continuity were important in the material selection of the product. As a result of our research at this stage, we decided that Corian material is suitable. At the same time, production was made with two materials considering that the plywood material was integrated with the design language.
Inspiration
The design is inspired by the Golden Ratio and geometric sculptures of Mangiarotti. Design is a connection between art&design. It is interactive and gives different possibilities of combination.
Project Duration
2018, Istanbul.
Operation Flow
All elements that make up the user product are interactive. The user can move it according to his requirements. When the product is not used, it can be stacked on top of each other to take up little space.
