The Design
About Spiral Blonde 사이드 테이블
프랙탈 예술과 수학에서 영감을 받은 Spiral Blonde 사이드 테이블은 예술 작품이자 기능적인 가구이기도 합니다. 독특한 기하학적 형태와 반짝이는 호밀짚의 복잡한 패턴 표면이 결합되어 어떤 환경에서도 눈을 사로잡는 놀라운 미학을 구현하며, 빛의 질이 변화함에 따라 하루 동안 미묘하게 변화합니다. 테이블 생산은 전통적인 밀짚 상감 예술과 현대적인 3D 프린팅을 결합했으며, 조립에 사용된 모든 재료는 완전히 생분해되며 재생 가능한 자원에서 나옵니다.

- Unique Properties
- The Spiral Blonde side table is equally a work of art and also a functional piece of furniture. Its distinctive geometric form and intricate patterned surface achieve a striking aesthetic which subtly transforms over the course of the day as the quality of light changes. Production of the table has combined the traditional art of straw marquetry with modern 3D printing and all materials used in its assembly are fully biodegradable and come from renewable resources.
- Dimensions & Packaging
- Width 350mm x Depth 350mm x Height 450mm
- Tags
- Side table, 3D print, 3D printed furniture, straw marquetry, algorithmic design, fractal
- Production Technology
- The 3D model was generated using open source modelling software and employed python scripts to develop the form of the design algorithmically. The model was then printed in parts on a 3D printer using wood fibre filament and the parts were soldered together and the joints sanded down smooth. Organically grown rye straw was applied to the completed base structure using traditional straw marquetry techniques, with each piece of straw ironed flat, cut precisely then glued down to create the intricate pattern.
- Design Challenge
- Applying straw marquetry to a 3D printed object is a unique approach to furniture fabrication, and key challenges were around printing the curved, organic base structure and ensuring the rye straw adhered to it effectively.
- Research
- Development of the design came out of studies of fractal mathematics and the generation of three dimensional objects using algorithmic processes. Subsequent printing of the 3D model involved extensive analysis and testing of materials and fabrication techniques to determine the best approach to printing the complex, organic shape in a way which created a robust base structure suited for use as a piece of furniture and to which straw marquetry could be applied.
- Inspiration
- The design takes inspiration from fractal art and mathematics. Fractals are self-similar shapes or patterns which repeat recursively at different scales to generate complex, captivating forms. Combining fractal forms with the beautiful shimmering effects possible through straw marquetry represents a unique approach to the creation of elaborate and beguiling objects.
- Project Duration
- Production occurred during 2020-2021 in Sydney, Australia
- Operation Flow
- Spiral Blonde can function as a side table or stool and its strong aesthetic qualities also lend it to use as a standalone piece of art. Its captivating form and shimmer draw the eye, creating a bold focal point in interior settings.
