About Zenta Collection Mesa de Relaxamento

Zenta é unha colección de mesas de té Zen deseñadas para plasmar a esencia única da arte dos xardíns secos xaponeses. Este proxecto de deseño prioriza unha experiencia nova, ofrecendo aos usuarios non só unha mesa de té senón tamén un elemento interactivo: rastrillar area para meditar e atopar a paz interior. A estética da colección inspírase nas imaxes de rochas e ondas, creando unha paisaxe natural en miniatura que realza a experiencia única de beber té.

Production Technology: Leveraging CNC technology, metal bending.
Research: The project focuses on researching the principles and imagery that a Japanese dry garden utilizes to bring about new psychological states in the experiencer. As such, this design has harnessed two fundamental images of nature: waves and rocks. The arrangement employs triangles or odd numbers, and the table legs are expressed through natural and uneven curves to bring about the most natural feeling possible.
Inspiration: Inspired from the perspectives and philosophies of Japanese Zen gardens. Exploiting the images of mountains and waves to create a miniature natural landscape. This will provide a tea-drinking experience that blends seamlessly with a sense of meditation.
Project Duration: The project started in April 2024 in Viet Nam and finished in July 2024.
Operation Flow: In moments when you need to release negative energy, you can rake the sand directly on the table. This is a dynamic meditation technique often employed in actual Zen gardens. The designated teapot area can also be used as a simple tea rinsing station, enhancing the sensation of waves. The combination of rocks and water creates a truly unique experience.
