The Design

About Kawarie Zabuton Japāņu Spilvens

Man ir daudz laika un naudas, lai pataupītu un palaistu bērnus, lai uzturētu bagātīgu dzīvi. Pieaugums, kas bieži vien nevar prasīt laiku, un tiek minēti dubultie ienākumi un kodolenerģiju saime kā iemesls, kas rada saiknes ar teritoriju saīsināšanos. Tātad vecāks un bērns pieskaras aizņemtībai ikdienas dzīvē, un tas ir bagātīgs laiks. Attēlu grāmata un grīdas spilvens bija viens no vēlmes, lai es vēlētos, lai būtu laiks. Tiek ierosināts komunikācijas līdzeklis vecākiem un bērnam. Ikdienas dabiskas pārmaiņas un laika plūsma ir jūtama un baudāma.

Core material - urethane form

Urethane foam which is stronger than elastic sponge and strong in elasticity is adopted.
Even if the posture becomes stable and I ease a burden to a lower back and sit down long, it's difficult to get tired.

I was particular about made in Japan as the tool you can keep using for a long time and aimed at the sophisticated shape by the simplicity to which tiredness doesn't come.
Research
arent-child communication tool.
I studied Japanese traditional crafts.
The material which is strong and lasts long was studied. I was particular about the thing which are the thing made in Japan and the interior where the room is changed according to the change and the feeling, the case that the shape changes and the seating comfort.
Inspiration
Based on the origami picture-changing box, Tsumugu's "Changing Picture Floor Cushion" was inspired by Kurume Tsumugi, a traditional Japanese patterned cloth.
Pull it out from the middle to change between the three di erent patterns.
With the warm texture and traditional Japanese patterns, this is perfect for almost any modern usage.
Project Duration
It was completed as a research result of the graduation production of the university. In July 2015 we launched an individual business, the first prototype was manufactured in November 2015.
Operation Flow
Feel like seeing, touching and imagining.
The warm shade. You can keep using it lengthily.
It's elastic and I'd like the seating comfort.
