About Vague 등받이 없는 의자

Vague는 연속적인 구조적 곡선으로 이루어진 등받이 없는 의자입니다. 바라보는 각도마다 서로 다른 조화로운 구성이 드러납니다. Vague는 직경 5/16인치의 강관을 벤딩 가공으로 성형하고 용접으로 접합하여 제작되었습니다. 표면은 분체 정전 도장 또는 구리 코팅으로 마감됩니다. 크기는 너비 400mm, 깊이 390mm, 높이 420mm입니다. 이 곡선들은 강물에 떨어진 물방울이 만들어내는 파문과 나뭇잎의 구조에서 영감을 얻었습니다. Vague는 좌석으로 사용할 수도 있고 장식적인 오브제로도 활용할 수 있습니다.

Unique Properties
Vague is a de-constructed stool with structural curves which form its shape. An astonishing piece of furniture, for every different angle from which it is seen reveals a harmonious composition.

The metal-cast stools bring out the poetry of what was the sketch inception; lines previously drawn morph into tubes and highlight the environment as a ready-to-enjoy object of art.

Production Technology
Vague uses as material steel tubes with 5/16 inch diameter and the production is made by bending and welding (TIG type).
After that, it receives an electrostatic paint or a copper coating finish.
Design Challenge
The hardest part of creating Vague was the cad 3d modeling.
Several studies have been done to achieve the perfect shape.
Research
Vague was inspired by nature, combining the structure of the leaves with the rising curves of a water droplet falling into a river, where a perfect, vibrant and continuous ripple takes shape.
Inspiration
Vague is French for wave - a name inspired by the rising curves of a water droplet falling into a river, where a perfect, vibrant and continuous ripple takes shape. The piece’s visual lightness embraces only the bare essential for its purpose, and that inspiration stemmed from carefully observing nature’s wisdom.
Project Duration
Vague was designed in São Paulo on April 2020 and has been produced in southern Brazil since August.
Operation Flow
Vague can be used as a simple stool but also as a piece of art, as its beauty creates a great highlight on environments.
