About Yourself 맞춤형 가구
Yourself는 여러 가지 다양한 형태로 조립할 수 있는 맞춤형 가구 시스템이다. Yourself는 목재 코어와 알루미늄 합금 스틱 세트로 구성된다. 코어는 기능을 결정하고, 스틱은 프레임을 형성한다. 각 부품은 나사로 결합되므로 하나의 제품이 캐비닛, 책장, 아기 침대 또는 커피 테이블이 될 수 있다. 코어는 안정적이고 내마모성이 뛰어난 목재인 티크로 제작되었으며, 프레임은 재활용이 가능한 알루미늄 합금으로 만들어졌다. 코어와 색상, 기능은 각각의 공간과 필요에 맞추어 선택할 수 있다.

Therefore, suitable as muti-functional furniture.
Aluminum alloys are lightweight, which makes them ideal for use in assembly product. Aluminum alloys have a high strength-to-weight ratio, which means they can withstand high levels of stress and pressure without deforming or breaking. This makes them ideal for use in structural applications. Aluminum alloys are 100% recyclable, which means they can be reused indefinitely without losing their properties. This makes them a sustainable choice for manufacturers and consumers alike. - Design Challenge
