About Picasso サイドボード

Picassoは、モダンなインテリアのためにデザインされたサイドボードである。無垢のツァラム材と、裏面から異なる色調で手描き塗装を施した強化ガラスパネルを組み合わせている。木材はコンピュータ制御の機械で切削し、仕上げは手作業で行われる。構造はほぞ組(ほぞとほぞ穴の接合)によって支えられ、脚部は角のあるフォルムを持つ。扉にはソフトクロージング機能付きのヒンジを採用。表面はポリウレタン塗装を6層重ねることで保護され、木目の美しさが際立つ。このサイドボードは、部屋や廊下の壁面に沿って設置できるほか、空間を仕切るパーティションとしても使用できる。

Research
It implicated an extensive study of the work of Pablo Picasso, and technology needed to paint in several shapes the glass panels from behind. From there the designer extracted the purest and conceptual forms in order to make a more modern and interactive design.
Inspiration

The angular shapes take the eye by surprise, inviting them to stop and contemplate this piece of furniture, as a spectator would do in front of a painting. Inspired by the whimsical but studied strokes of the painter Pablo Picasso, he tries to propose a bold avant-garde conceptual design.
