The Design
About Cloud Stull
Cloud ass e Stull, deen inspiréiert gouf vun engem Reeschauer, deen iwwer der Küst vun der Insel Okinawa a Japan gesi gouf. D'Sëtzfläch gëtt gemaach, andeems Polyesterfaser mat enger Nol an de Polyurethanschaum gestach gëtt, wat e mëllt, wollekeähnlecht Ausgesi schaaft. Eng héich Sëtzfläch gëtt der Persoun, déi setzt, e Gefill vum Schwiewen. D'Been an de Sockel aus Edelstol mat Spigeleffekt si geformt aus dënnen, ronne Staangen, déi de falende Reen ausdrécken. D'Zuel, d'Längt an den Duerchmiesser vun de Staange goufe suergfälteg festgeluecht. Cloud ass handgemaach aus Edelstol, Polyesterfaser, Holz a Polyurethanschaum.

- Research
- I feel like the products in the world are now uniform.
Different regions have their own culture and nature.
Among them, I paid attention to nature.
I think of naturally inspired designs.
After that, repeat the verification of the material and structure.
I will announce the created design to the world and aim for commercialization.
I believe that doing so will enrich the uniform world. - Inspiration
- The sky is connected everywhere in the world.
Many people have seen clouds.
A design inspired by nature will resonate with various people.
I live on Okinawa Island south of Japan.
One day, I saw a moving cloud while it rained on the coast.
The idea of this chair came up from the scenery at that time. - Project Duration
- The project started in April 2019 and ended in October 2019.
- Operation Flow
- I think there are many people who have imagined when they were children that they could sit on clouds.
I realized that imagination.
Poetic products enrich the emotions of users.
In addition, this product makes the surrounding space visually enjoyable. - Image Credits
