About Cornnie Tempat Duduk Sudut
Cornnie adalah seri tempat duduk yang dirancang untuk ruang sudut. Seri ini terdiri dari tiga bagian yang berukuran 1200 kali 700 kali 850 milimeter ketika disatukan. Setiap tempat duduk dibuat dari kayu lapis lentur yang dilem dan dipres pada cetakan yang dikerjakan dengan mesin CNC. Kaki-kaki melengkung menghubungkan setiap tempat duduk ke sudut ruangan dan menawarkan cara-cara baru dalam memanfaatkan ruang. Cornnie memungkinkan pengguna beristirahat di area sudut dan menciptakan ruang yang relatif personal di sana tanpa harus membangun dinding pemisah di antara satu sama lain. Tujuannya adalah menghadirkan tempat yang tenang untuk menyendiri di dalam lingkungan bersama yang terbuka.

- Unique Properties
- A seating series designed for corner spaces, presenting a solitary moment that conveys the message, everyone needs space for themselves. Users can find comfortable corner spaces through the use of the seating and can create a relatively personal space there, without building a wall between each other. The furniture also shows that we don‘t always need to be proactive in seeking interaction, but can take a step back and make ourselves comfortable.
- Dimensions & Packaging
- 1200mm*700mm*850mm

- Production Technology
- bendable plywoods were being glued and pressed on the mould that milled by CNC
- Design Challenge
- To figure out how to connect people and the corner spaces is the hardest part. There aremanyways that wecould sit in the corner spaces. But what’s the connection between people, object (seating) and space? And then, I come up with the ideas, the curved legs of the chairs. This relationship between object and space create dialogue between themselves, and leads to the specific characters of the objects. These characteristics also seem to hint to the user how they can use the space in a novel way. The process empowers the users to experience their environment with a new perspective.
- Research
- I tried to sit in every corner space that I could find to experience how we could see and feel a room with different perspectives. And then I made some miniatures of spaces and objects to find out which element I can extract from the spaces to connect the design strongly with the corners. After the connection between object and space is bounded, I made some 1:1 prototypes of stools with curved legs and put them in certain positions to observe how people interact with them. A clear concept of the relationship between people, objects and spaces is then developed.
- Inspiration
- The spaces between public and private are becoming more open as time goes on. The people who use these in-between spaces are diverse. The interactions in these spaces enrich our everyday lives and provides inspiration, but also lead to stressful situations due to the lack of places to retreat. CORNNIE builds on these observations. Users can feel comfortable in corner spaces through the use of the seating and create a relatively personal space there without building a wall between each other.
- Project Duration
- The project started in October 2018 in Berlin and finished in October 2019 in Berlin, and was exhibited in the Berlin University of the Arts Design Master Graduation Show
- Operation Flow
- The seatings play an important role, they create an interface between people and space. This interrelationship leads to the specific characters of the objects, and these characteristics also seem to hint to the user how they can use the space in a novel way. The process empowers the users to experience their environment with a new perspective.
