About Klotz Frumhlutverk: Uppbyggilegt sófaborð

Bókartexti: Klotz er sófaborð með glerplötu sem hvílir á fótum úr viði, samsettum úr sex aðskildum hlutum. Hver fótur er myndaður með því að tengja saman þrjá viðarkubba sem samlæsast, sem skapar einfalt en jafnframt höggmyndakennt útlit. Ljós eik og svört eik eru sameinaðar til að skapa andstæðukennt litasamspil sem dregur skýrt fram byggingu og formfræðilega uppbyggingu fótanna.

Unique Properties
Klotz is a coffee table that has a glass top and wooden legs made of six separate parts.
The legs have a block structure constructed by bracing three legs with the other three legs, producing a simple, sculptural form.
For the wooden legs, I used two different kinds of oak wood which
have different colors. the one with lighter color is light oak, and
the one with darker color is black oak. By combining two different
colored woods, it creates interesting contrast and makes the
structure of legs more clearly.

Design Challenge
The big challenge of this project was how I could bring humour to the living room.
Research
In the beginning of the project, I did research about furniture with smart and beautiful structures.
