About Bow Tie 보타이

보타이는 사암으로 제작된 착용 가능한 액세서리입니다. 보타이의 구조는 자연적인 암석 형성을 모방하였으며, 체코 공화국 보헤미안 파라다이스의 사암 지형에서 영감을 받았습니다. 제작 과정은 스케치, 3차원 모델링, 3차원 프린팅, CNC 밀링 및 수작업을 결합합니다. 각 제품은 손으로 마무리되므로 모든 액세서리가 유일무이합니다. 제품의 크기는 114 x 58 x 20밀리미터이며, 견고하면서도 가볍습니다. 조절 가능한 사전 매듭 밴드는 거의 모든 목둘레에 잘 맞습니다. 크기, 색상 및 포장은 맞춤 제작이 가능하며, 수제 포장이 함께 제공됩니다.

Tags: sandstone, sculpture, rock formation, bow tie, accessory, custom
Production Technology: Production includes sketching, 3d modeling, 3d printing, CNC milling, handicraft, and finishing. Also including colorization and lamp production.
Design Challenge: Inventing the technological process, so the sculpture was firm to the required shape and still with the original artwork reminiscent of rock formations.
Research: The research behind this object was to develop an innovative process to create well-balanced art resembling the inspiration from the Bohemian Paradise rock formations while the end product was sturdy but a lightweight. Also, a lot of research went into the finishing and possible customizations such as size, color, and hand-made packaging.
Inspiration: The exclusive structure of the Yakobium sandstone bow tie is inspired by Bohemian Paradise in the Czech Republic and its unique rock formations. Since the site and the rock formations are marked as national heritage, crafting an object of this unique piece of nature is out of the question. So, with our unique technological process, everyone can enjoy the unique structures without harming nature. The inspiration comes from visits to the national heritage site.
Project Duration: The project started in 2012 with a sandstone illuminated sculpture prototype. In 2019, a special edition of bow ties has been created to make a wearable product to be accessible to masses.
Operation Flow: The bow tie sculpture can be worn like any other bow tie on the market. It has an adjustable, pre-tied band that fits almost any neck. It has an awesome nature-like feeling in touch. The small sand particles do shine and reflect light.
