About Forme Whakakai Porowhita

Ko Forme he takirua whakakai porowhita i whakaawetia e ngā anga me ngā kakano o te hoahoanga ahumahi. I hangaia te hoahoa mai i tētahi anga konganuku māmā e hoatu ana i te kōpūtahi, te hanganga me te āhua ki ia porowhita. Ko te konganuku tūāpapa he parahi kua uhia ki te kōura 18 karati, ā, he mea hanga ā-ringa ia taonga. Ko ngā rahinga katoa he 31 mā te 33 mā te 7 mitamano. I tuhia, i whakatakotoria hoki te hoahoa mā te rorohiko, ā, i whakaritea he pepa hangarau mō te whakamātau tauira me te whakaputanga. Nā te āta rangahau i te anga me te mātotoru o te konganuku ka kaha, ka mauroa hoki ngā porowhita.

Production Technology
The base metal is brass with 18k gold plating. The design was sketched and drafted on CorelDraw. After creating the technical sheet, it was sent to the factory for 3D making and sampling.
Design Challenge
The challenge was to come up with the right framework, metal thickness and structure so as to make the hoop strong and durable.
Research
The hoop is from the Forme collection, which is the third collection for my Jewelry brand under the label Harsha Ambady. As for this collection, I wanted to come up with textures/forms/structures used in Architecture. So that is the direction my research went to. I have an inclination towards frameworks and structures and hence this design was born.
Inspiration
As a Designer and Architect, I have always had an inclination towards geometry and modern forms. This collection is inspired by the structures and textures used in industrial architecture. The collection showcases four different textures and forms. This particular design is created using simple framework of metal.
