About Ritmo Tēpu Kai

Ko Ritmo he tēpu kai i hoahoatia hei wāhi huihui mō te whānau me ngā hoa. Kua whakaahuatia ngā waewae kia whakatairite i te nekehanga, e hanga ana i tētahi ahua o te manawataki. Ko tētahi pae parahi hei raina taurite whakawhiti i te tūāpapa. Ka tirohia mai i ngā ahunga rerekē, ka whakaaturia e te tēpu ngā āhua rerekē. Ka tapahia, ka oro, ka hurihia hoki te rākau, ā, ka piri ngā wāhanga kātahi ka whakauhitia (varnished). Ka whakapūmautia te pae parahi ki ngā poi. Ko te āhua e whai ana i tētahi ara Kāntinia (Scandinavian) me te ao hou (modernist). Ka taea a Ritmo te hanga ki ngā rahi me ngā tae rerekē mō ngā rūma kai, ngā tari, me ngā rūma whakapaipai.

Production Technology
The wood is cut and sanded, then turned and the pieces glued to receive varnish. Finally, the brass bar is fixed with the spheres. Noble wood in its purest form with a varnished finish.
Design Challenge
The challenge was the feet. How to make fine lines create movement and support the table. For this, we used real wood and a straight base to make the feet. So it can be painted or laminated.
Research
During the quarantine, we used our furniture a lot, and the dining table was the place to gather the family, eat good food and share moments, smiles and love, so this is the best place to be with family and friends. Our research was to make an emotional project and create a table with movement.
Inspiration
Inspired by the rhythm of life. The dining table is the family's meeting place. The furniture to make happy moments and create affective memories. Designed with scandinavian inspiration and modernist style.
Project Duration
The project started in October 2021 in Sao Paulo - Brasil and finished in january 2022 in Belo Horizonte - Brasil.
Operation Flow
A table that can be made in various sizes and colors to work in various places such as dining room, office, vanity room.
