About Cotton Spate Prìomh Ghnìomh: Consoil Taisbeanaidh

Teacsa Leabhair: Is e consoil taisbeanaidh a th' ann an Cotton Spate a chaidh a dhealbhadh airson bùth pop-up. Tha an consoil a' taisbeanadh àireamh bheag de thoraidhean gus am fuirich an aire air gach nì fa leth. Tha an cruth aice air a bhrosnachadh le achaidhean de fhlùraichean cotain organach Pima, a tha a' fàs ri taobh loch ann am Peru. Tha uachdar tonnach trì-thaobhach geal a' cumail truinnsearan meatailt cruinn tana a tha a' giùlan nan nithean. Tha am pàirt tonnach dèanta de bhogha àrd-dùmhlachd air a chumadh le làimh bho mhodail choimpiutair, agus tha na truinnsearan de mheatailt geal air a pheantadh. Tha an cuntair agus an còmhdach a-muigh dèanta de fhiodh. Tha àite stòraidh air a chur fon uachdar thonnach.

Design Challenge
The hardest part of this project is to compose the right material and tools for archiving a three-dimensional surface portion due to the budget limitation. Usually, the best ways to compose such a design, it is best to utilize CNC digital fabrication, however, it costs too much for this pop-up shelf. In the end, the attentive solution is to incorporate other industry master craftsmen to cut the high-density foam by hand by referencing the computer model.
Research
The main objective of this project is to find the most efficient ways to craft a three-dimensional surface by choosing the right material and crafting tools. By incorporating other industry skills, the design archive the minimum expanse to assemble the shelf.
Inspiration
The inspiration for the design is the filed of organic Pima cotton flower which the brand exclusively used for its product. The Pima cotton flower grows by the lake in Peru and it creates a strong impression of purity. The shelf incorporates the identity of the brand by creating a white three-dimensional wavy surface and host circular thin metal plates to present their items.
