About Cotton Spate Consola de Exposición
Texto do Libro: Cotton Spate é unha consola de exposición deseñada para unha tenda pop-up. A consola presenta un pequeno número de produtos para que a atención se manteña en cada peza. A súa forma inspírase en campos de flores de algodón Pima orgánico, que medran á beira dun lago en Perú. Unha superficie branca ondulada tridimensional sostén finas placas metálicas circulares que soportan os artigos. A parte ondulada é de espuma de alta densidade moldada a man a partir dun modelo informático, e as placas son de metal pintado en branco. O mostrador e o peche exterior están feitos de madeira. O espazo de almacenamento sitúase baixo a superficie ondulada.
