About Cloud Krēsls

Cloud ir krēsls, kura iedvesmas avots ir lietus gāze, kas redzēta pār Okinavas salas krastu Japānā. Sēdvirsma ir izveidota, ar adatu iestrādājot poliestera šķiedru poliuretāna putās, kas rada mīkstu, mākonim līdzīgu izskatu. Augsts sēdeklis rada sēdošajai personai peldēšanas sajūtu. Spoguļveida nerūsējošā tērauda kājas un pamatne ir veidotas no tieviem apaļiem stieņiem, kas attēlo krītošu lietu. Stieņu skaits, garums un diametrs tika rūpīgi noteikti. Cloud ir roku darbs, kas izgatavots no nerūsējošā tērauda, poliestera šķiedras, koka un poliuretāna putām.

Design Challenge
In addition, the number, length, and diameter of stainless steel round bars that express rain were carefully determined.
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.
