About Bio Rooj Zaum Qab Loo

Bio yog ib pab rooj zaum qab loo qhov chaw zaum qis uas tsim los siv rau hauv tsev nyob niaj hnub no. Qhov qhib nyob ntawm sab nraub qaum zoo li ib daim nplooj los sis lub plhaub, thiab tus qauv hloov pauv nyob ze ntawm ntug sab nraud mus rau ib tug qauv zoo ib yam li lub paj ntawm tsob nroj Calla aethiopica. Tus ntug no me me nkhaus rov qab thiab nce siab rau ib sab, ua rau muaj tus duab tsis sib npaug. Qhov tsis sib npaug no tshwm sim tsuas yog nyob rau cov cheeb tsam sab nraud ntawm tus qauv xwb, yog li qhov kev nyob tso siab thiab kev tsim los siv raws li lub cev neeg tseem tau khaws cia. Cov khoom siv muaj xws li thermoplastics uas raug hlau txhaws, hlau, aluminum nchuav, ntoo oak thiab tawv.

The Recognition

About the A' Design Award Tooj

Bio Rooj Zaum Qab Loo yog tus yeej ntawm A' Design Award Tooj, ib qho kev lees paub muaj meej mom heev uas muab rau cov qauv tsim tshwj xeeb uas txawv los ntawm kev tsim tshiab, kev txawj tsim thiab kev ntse. Cov neeg yeej Tooj yog cov khoom muaj txuj ci heev thiab tsim tshiab heev uas ua pov thawj txog kev paub ntau, kev xav thiab kev txawj ua ntawm cov kws tsim qauv. Bio Rooj Zaum Qab Loo xav tias yuav yog ib qho khoom uas neeg hwm, qhuas thiab hlub, uas tshaj lij heev thiab tsim tshiab. Cov qauv tsim yeej A' Design Award Tooj no siv cov kev coj ua zoo tshaj plaws ntawm kev kos duab, kev tshawb fawb, kev tsim qauv thiab thev naus laus zis thiab zoo heev vim nws saib xyuas cov ntsiab lus. Bio Rooj Zaum Qab Loo ua tau raws li cov kev xav tau zoo kawg, kov cov kev xav, ntxias cov kev xav thiab txhawb kev xav paub.

Unique Properties: The ambiguous shape of the opening on the seat's back, recognizable as a leaf or shell transforms into a more characteristic form similar to the flower of the Calla aethiopica plant on the edge of the backrest. This edge bends slightly backwards and rises on one side, creating a new visual effect as opposed to the other side. The asymmetry of the silhouette does not affect the functionality and ergonomics of the seat since changes in the shape occur only in the outer areas of the form.
Dimensions & Packaging: Width / Depth: up to 680mm, Height: 849mm (medium)
Tags: Asymmetry, Natural, Bio-form, Growth, Stylization
Production Technology: Molded thermoplastics, Welded laser-cut and pressed steel, Cast aluminum, Oakwood, Leather
Design Challenge: The shape of the seat can be associated with a multitude of natural forms but also with the general characteristics of the living world. The silhouette of the seat is defined through two edge curves similar in shape but with subtle differences such as curvature, orientation, distortion, and depth. These gradual changes emphasize growth as a universally understandable natural pattern and accentuate the form through minimal spatial deformations associated with gravity and weight. A firm overall construct was kept whilst utilizing asymmetry as one of the main chosen attributes.
Research: The research was performed by analyzing samples from flora and fauna and simplification and stylizing through drawings and 3D computer models. The result contains no unnecessary visual details, and was driven by the challenge of creating asymmetrical functional aesthetics within an ergonomic fresh design, universally understood as a bio-form. Different variants were developed depending on the purpose of the chair and type of legs, with metal and wood as starting materials. The organic lines of the seats are additionally emphasized in contrast with the materials of the legs.
Inspiration: Bio is a conceptual research project in the subject of stylistics created as a part of doctoral studies. The proposal of the chair collection was inspired by organic shapes and universal principals of nature.
Project Duration: The project lasted one semester at the Faculty of Applied Arts in Belgrade.
Operation Flow: Bio is a low armchair collection designed for various usages. It complements modern interiors with simplistic asymmetry and unobtrusive form open to interpretation.
