About Coastline Latabatra

Coastline dia latabatra nahazoan-tsindrimotika avy amin'ny fisondrotry ny haavon'ny ranomasina vokatry ny fiovan'ny toetr'andro maneran-tany. Ny ambonin'ny latabatra dia vita amin'ny acrylic, izay fantatra ihany koa amin'ny anarana hoe PMMA, ary noforonina tamin'ny alalan'ny fanafanana amin'ny hafanana avo lenta mba haneho ny ranomasina madio. Ny rafitra manohana kosa dia vita amin'ny hazo michelia compressa sy hazo pin, ary ny hazo dia maneho ny haavon'ny tendrombohitra. Nofidina ny hazo mafy mba tsy hiova endrika ny rafitra mandritra ny fanafanana. Ny sisiny tsy mitovy habe dia mampahatsiahy morontsiraka simban'ny herin'ny ranomasina, ary ny fitambaran'ireo fitaovana dia ahafahan'ny hazavana mamakivaky sosona maromaro. Ny latabatra dia manana habe 350 mm ny sakany, 650 mm ny lalindalina ary 500 mm ny hahavony.

Tags: A Global warming, B Sea-level rise, C Art, D Table
Production Technology: The table top is mainly made of PMMA, and the table is mainly made of michelia compressa and Pine.
Design Challenge: Liquid acrylic material is selected as the table top. Liquid acrylic shaping requires high-temperature heating. Therefore, hard wood is selected so that it will not deform during heating.
Considering the above, in the end, the desktop wood is chosen to use the hard texture Michelia compressa wood.
Liquid acrylic color grading is also one of the big challenges. It takes a lot of time for each test to get the best color and transmittance.
Inspiration: Taking the rising sea level caused by global warming as the starting point, the coastline was eroded by the seawater and showed an uneven appearance, making the table more layered.
Project Duration: The project started in January 2017 in Taiwan. And finished in June 2017 in Taiwan. And was exhibited in Songshan Cultural and Creative Park in June 2017. For the second time in Taipei Pavilion of fashion in November 2019.
