About Humming Tree Blagovaonski stol

Humming Tree je blagovaonski stol koji ujedno funkcionira i kao podna vaza. Središnji otvor prima visoko suho ili svježe cvijeće, lišće i grane drveća. Oblik je inspiriran strelastim oblikom lista taro biljke, s njegovom srednjom žilom, žilicama i čistom plojkom. Struktura lista podijeljena je na dva dijela, sloj kože i sloj kostiju, a oblik lista pojavljuje se tamo gdje se ta dva sloja preklapaju. Stol je izrađen od polikarbonata i čelika, a dimenzije su mu 1400 x 950 x 750 milimetara. Prozirni dizajn približava prirodne elemente ukućanima u gradskim domovima tijekom objedovanja.

Behind the Design

Press Kit

Unique Properties: Humming Tree is a fusion of dining table and floor vase to hold tall dry or fresh flowers, leaves and tree branches. City life has become mentally exhausting and contact with Nature has become less. The intent is to let the diners experience natural elements arranged in the vase and this will help in reducing stress and negative feelings as they dine. It is a see through design with leaf structure split into two distinct Skin and Bone components. The leaf form becomes apparent when they overlap.
Dimensions & Packaging: Overall Dimension (l x b x h) : 1400 mm x 950 mm x 750 mm
Dining Area : 1100 mm x 950 mm
Tags: Leaf inspired, veins and blade, Taro Leaf, Vase Table, cantilevered table, see through design
Production Technology: Polycarbonate, steel
Research: Benefits of experiencing Nature and natural elements were studied and also the leaf structure of Taro leaf was studied for better understanding while developing the form.
Inspiration: Humming Tree is inspired from arrow head shape Taro leaf structure. Taro leaf collects water at its center spot and has distinct midrib and veins structure with clean blade and this inspired me to develop the leaf form into two distinct layers overlapping above each other and elongate and deepen the centre spot till the floor to function as floor vase.
Operation Flow: The dining table with collection/arrangement in the center spot is a strong stimulus to the diners since the scale is larger than conventional vases kept at the center of table. The human sized arrangement of natural dry/fresh flower, leaves and branches will help in restoring the mind and evoking positive thoughts.
