About Plover Tūru Whakamahi Maha
He tūru whakamahi maha a Plover i hangaia mō ngā akomanga, ngā wānanga me ngā awheawhe mahi tahi. Ka tautoko te tūru i ngā tū noho maha. Ka taea e te tangata te noho ki te tū noho anga whakamua, ki te noho rānei me te aro whakamuri, pēnei i te eke hōiho. Ko te āhuatanga motuhake o Plover ko tētahi papa mahi iti kua whakaurua ki roto. Ka mahi hoki taua papa hei okiokinga ringa mō te noho ki te taha, hei nohoanga teitei ake rānei me te tūranga waewae. Ka taea te whakamahi i ngā tūru takitahi, te whakarōpū rānei mō te matapaki me te auaha ngātahi.

- Free like a Bird
With the ability to roam the earth and soar up into the sky, birds are natural symbols of freedom. Capturing this free spirit of the birds as well as the duality of their solitary and social nature, Plover is a collection of chairs co-created by architect Eravolution Limited and a group of THEi product design students, either used individually or collectively for brainstorming, seminars and co-creation.
The Plover chairs may appear delicate, but they got everything one needs. - Project Duration
- The project was first launch in 2019 at China International Furniture Fair (Guangzhou), March 2019.
