About Mushroom Príomhfheidhm: Seilf
Téacs Leabhair: Is seilf é Mushroom atá deartha chun rudaí laethúla a thaispeáint go saor. Déantar gach cruth muisiriúin a shnoí de láimh, ceann ar cheann, as adhmad camfhoir Okinawan agus leabaítear maighnéad ann. Tá na muisiriúin ceangailte le pláta caol cruach a éiríonn ón urlár, ionas gur féidir gach cruth a shuíomh go saor. Coinníonn muisiriúin mhóra earraí éagsúla, agus coinníonn muisiriúin bheaga cártaí poist nó nótaí. Cuireann an bonn plátaí cruach lúbtha le sraith-adhmad le chéile. Fuarthas inspioráid don dearadh ó mhuisiriúin ag fás ar chomhartha adhmaid, agus athraíonn a chuma de réir gach úsáideora.

- Production Technology
- The mushrooms are carefully hand-carved one by one from Okinawan camphorwood.
Thin steel plates were then bent and combined with plywood to create the base to which the mushrooms are attached. - Design Challenge
- I had a hard time conveying the wonder of nature in a sensory way. Structure and details were important, but I had to make sure that what I felt was expressed properly as I worked toward completion.
- Research
- I visited several islands in Okinawa for this project. I observed and repeatedly sketched the nature there. Then, while modeling in 3D, I made a number of mock-ups and examined them. At the same time, I also considered what materials would be appropriate.
- Inspiration
- I usually create ideas from the nature around me.
This was inspired by the sight of mushrooms growing out of a wooden sign in my neighborhood.
I felt the vitality and freedom of the mushrooms that grow from artifacts.
It was very interesting.
Currently, there are various ways of life and values.
This shelf changes its appearance depending on the user. - Project Duration
- The project started in June 2020 in Okinawa and finished in January 2021 in Okinawa.
