About Triangle Tēpu

Ko te hoahoa matihiko, he āhua hoahoa hihiri, e whai ana i ngā āhuatanga kāore e tino mārama, ka taea te hanga nui rerekētanga mā te hātepe arorau, me te taunekeneke hoki ki te tangata. Ko Growth he hanga āhua kaha te mauri. I ngana te kaihoahoa ki te whakatipu tēpu pēnei i te rākau. He papa tēpu kore rite tōna, kua hangaia ki te Papa Whioro Pūngohe Waenga, ā, e tautokona ana e ngā waewae rino whiriwhiri e rite ana ki ngā manga. I tua atu, ka taea e ngā kaiwhakamahi te whakarite i ngā tēpu ki ngā tauira rerekē mā te arorau pāngarau. Ka whakamahia ki roto i te tari tuwhera, i te toa kōhi rānei hei whakaoro i te mokowā. Ko te papa tēpu ānau e whakamāmā ana i te whakawhitiwhiti kōrero.

Unique Properties
During exploration in digital design, designer tried to grow a table. It has an irregular desktop, which is made by Medium Density Fiberboard (MFD), and hold up intricate and branch like steel legs. Besides, users can arrange tables into different kind of patterns with mathematical logic, as well as gain entertaining. It is used in an open office or coffee shop to make the space more rhythmic. Curve desktop facilitates communication.
Dimensions & Packaging
1560mm * 1110mm * 740mm Each
Multiple sizes can be formed to match multiple scenes

table, desk, office, commercial furniture, modular design, digital design
Production Technology
Digital design is a new design method that people and computer cooperate to design. We give computer some framework instructions, computer algorithm automatically control line or surface to generate some random shapes. Designers design products by adjusting these forms and combining with traditional design methods.
Design Challenge
Social perspectives challenge the public's understanding of traditional tables.
Technology implementation. it is necessary to consider the matching between different modular design and space and scene, as well as the scale and shape conforming to the environmental changes.
Research
Digital design, a dynamic design style, pursuing uncertainties, can create a huge amount of variate by logical algorithm, as well as interact with human. Therefore, these random states and results of a new sense of openness bring people in certain environment more space of imagination, which we believe will change our way of thinking someday.
Inspiration
The theme of this design is growth. Because growth is a structural form with strong vitality. Digital design itself also imitates the growth form to create random form.So we try to use digital design to grow a table like a tree.
Project Duration
The project started in November 2019 in Hangzhou and finished in August 2020 in Hangzhou.
Operation Flow
The mathematical logic of equality and symmetry is used to create the straight line edge of the table. Users can make different shapes according to their needs. The surface and the supporting structure are connected by bolts, and users can change the color of the table according to their preference.
