The Design

About Taiwan Imagery Sella

Imago Taiwanensis est sella e cultu Taiwanensi traditionali inspirata. Consilium sacculum KA-TSI, sacculum contextum in Taiwania vulgo usitatum, cum Sella Tai-Shi, sella brachiata lignea Sinensi classica in domibus Taiwanensibus antiquis adhibita, coniungit. Scirpus et aluminium praecipuae materiae sunt. Sella 500 per 980 per 710 millimetra metitur. Dorsum, pulvinus, et crura tres partes separatas efficiunt, clavis coniunctas, ut vectura compacta et fabricatio simplicior sit. Forma curvas figuras moderatur et errores in productione minuit.

Tags
Culture,Traditional,KA-TSI bag,Tai-Shi Chair
Production Technology
bulrush (phôo tsháu)/Aluminum
Design Challenge
The special curvature makes it easy to produce errors, so after many experiments we chose to use a mold to control its shape.
Research
The earliest KA-TSI bags were knitted with bulrush (phôo tsháu).
KA-TSI Chair is taken from Tai-Shi Chair, the Chinese wooden fauteuil. Named after the official title, the Tai-Shi Chair is a classical Chinese furniture used by the Taiwanese earlier.
Inspiration
We hope to bring the traditional culture of Taiwan into this design, so that the tradition can be reproduced by design.
Project Duration
The project starts in Turin in October 2022 and ends in Taiwan in December 2022.
Operation Flow
The whole chair is divided into three parts, the back, cushion and legs, and assembled with screws, so that it will not take up space when transporting and can be more easily processed and manufactured.
