About Humming Tree Ēdamgalds

Humming Tree ir ēdamgalds, kas vienlaikus kalpo arī kā grīdas vāze. Centrālais atvērums notur augstus sausus vai svaigus ziedus, lapas un koku zarus. Forma iedvesmota no Taro lapas bultas formas gala, ar tās vidusdzīslu, dzīslojumu un tīru asmeni. Lapas struktūra ir sadalīta divās daļās – ādas slānī un kaula slānī, un lapas forma parādās vietā, kur šie divi slāņi pārklājas. Galds izgatavots no polikarbonāta un tērauda, tā izmēri ir 1400 x 950 x 750 milimetri. Caurspīdīgais dizains ļauj dabas elementiem tuvāk pienākt pilsētu māju iedzīvotājiem pie galda.

Unique Properties
Humming Tree is a fusion of dining table and floor vase to hold tall dry or fresh flowers, leaves and tree branches. City life has become mentally exhausting and contact with Nature has become less. The intent is to let the diners experience natural elements arranged in the vase and this will help in reducing stress and negative feelings as they dine. It is a see through design with leaf structure split into two distinct Skin and Bone components. The leaf form becomes apparent when they overlap.
Dimensions & Packaging
Overall Dimension (l x b x h) : 1400 mm x 950 mm x 750 mm
Dining Area : 1100 mm x 950 mm

Production Technology
Polycarbonate, steel
Research
Benefits of experiencing Nature and natural elements were studied and also the leaf structure of Taro leaf was studied for better understanding while developing the form.
Inspiration
Humming Tree is inspired from arrow head shape Taro leaf structure. Taro leaf collects water at its center spot and has distinct midrib and veins structure with clean blade and this inspired me to develop the leaf form into two distinct layers overlapping above each other and elongate and deepen the centre spot till the floor to function as floor vase.
Operation Flow
The dining table with collection/arrangement in the center spot is a strong stimulus to the diners since the scale is larger than conventional vases kept at the center of table. The human sized arrangement of natural dry/fresh flower, leaves and branches will help in restoring the mind and evoking positive thoughts.
