The Design

About Classic 서안(글쓰기 책상)

클래식은 신중국풍 스타일로 디자인된 서안이다. 이 디자인은 중국 전통 가구의 권두안(양끝이 위로 솟은 탁자) 형태를 응용했으며, 위로 들어 올려진 양 끝단은 두루마리를 비롯한 물품이 상판에서 떨어지는 것을 막아준다. 책상은 레드 오크로 제작되었고, 주철이 상판과 좌판, 다리를 잇는 연결부를 이룬다. 하단 선반은 수납공간을 더해준다. 금속 부품은 컴퓨터 제어 가공으로 성형되며, 곡면 부분은 수작업으로 마감된다. 상판은 중국 전통의 판재 접합 기법을 사용했다.

Production Technology
The manufacturing process used modern CNC technology, solidworks software design, and CNC milling machine to achieve the form, some special forms are still made by traditional hand, the metal part and the solid wood part both have quite a part made by the artisan own hands, which embodies the spirit of ingenuity, and the importance of traditional craftsmanship. For modern life, it is still a valuable asset, some of the delicate structure still can not be replaced by machines.
Design Challenge
How to combine the new Chinese elements with the metal elements and the simple wind to show the functional comfort and the rationality of material use is the biggest challenge of this design. The second is the connection problem between the metal and the tabletop and legs as well as the chair face and legs.
Research
In the traditional Chinese style furniture, the QiaoAn image is applied to the whole set of desks and chairs, and this image is used in the design, first, in order to perfectly embody the Chinese style elements in this set of furniture, therefore, I chose this image which can represent Chinese style office furniture. The other is that users can have a good user experience. The furniture is a combination of Red Oak and cast iron design, it is the second innovation to the new Chinese furniture.
Inspiration
The overall design inspiration comes from the traditional Chinese furniture in the QiaoAn image. In ancient times, calligraphy and painting only mounted into a shaft, in order to prevent the painting falling, the initial image of the case, one is practical, the second is aesthetic. Using this image is to let the user have a good user experience while writing and painting to facilitate the placement of items as well as prevent items from falling.
Project Duration
The design project began in January 2019 in Shenyang, was completed in June 2019, and was exhibited in the art museum of Shenyang Lu Xun Academy of Fine Arts in June 2019.
Operation Flow
When you sit on a chair working, the desk and chair in contact with the body having a small inclined surface, so that you do not feel pressured. Painting scroll pile up on the desk, because of its two-end QiaoAn image, will reduce the chance of falling. The lower part of the writing desk has a shelf similar to the lnterlayer, which not only adds utility, but also adds beauty to the product.
