About Atlantic 003 Тухлах сандал
Энэхүү тухлах сандал нь аюулгүй байдлын салбарт уламжлалт байдлаар ашиглагддаг хуягласан шилийг тавилгын дизайнд оруулснаар материалын хэрэглээг шинэчлэн тодорхойлж байна. Сандал нь эзэлхүүнтэй, дэрлэсэн суудалтай бөгөөд түүнийг хөнгөн, гоёмсог байдлыг нэмэгдүүлэх тунгалаг шил гартавцаар тодотгосон. Шил давхаргалах чиглэлээр хийсэн өргөн хүрээтэй судалгаа нь шилний давхаргууд дунд нэхмэл материал нэвтрүүлэх боломжийг олгож, бат бэхийг харагдах эрхэм нарийхан байдалтай нэгтгэсэн. Үр дүнд нь уламжлалт дэрлэлтийг сорьж, гэрийн тавилга дахь шилний үүргийг дахин төсөөлсөн, цаг хугацаанаас үл хамаарах шинэлэг бүтээл бий болжээ.

Behind the Design
Press Kit
Credits, team members and technical details provided by the designer.
- Unique Properties
- This lounge chair redefines material applications by integrating armored glass—a material traditionally used in security industries—into furniture design. Featuring a comfortable seat with back support, it is framed by two transparent armored glass sides that serve as armrests, providing both strength and elegance. Mounted on a rotating base, the chair merges durability with fluid motion. This innovative use of industrial-grade glass in domestic furniture creates a striking and timeless design.
- Dimensions & Packaging
- Dimensions: width 900mm x depth 1000mm x height 950mm
- Production Technology
- The chair is crafted using a combination of advanced glass lamination techniques and traditional upholstery. The armrests are made of armored glass, produced by bonding multiple layers for strength and durability. The seat structure is built with high-quality materials for comfort and longevity. Precision engineering ensures seamless integration of glass and fabric, resulting in a refined, durable, and visually striking piece of furniture.
The chair is crafted using a combination of advanced glass lamination techniques and traditional upholstery. The armrests are made of armored glass, produced by bonding multiple layers for strength and durability, allowing the insertion of textile between them. The seat structure is built with high-quality materials for comfort and longevity. Precision engineering ensures seamless integration of glass and fabric, resulting in a refined, durable, and visually striking piece of furniture. - Design Challenge
- The main challenge was adapting armored glass—traditionally used in security applications—into a functional and comfortable furniture piece. Structurally, balancing strength with ergonomic needs required extensive testing. Sourcing high-quality laminated glass and integrating fabric without compromising durability was another hurdle. Socially, the design reinterprets materials beyond their conventional roles, while production demanded precise craftsmanship and specialized bonding techniques to ensure safety and longevity.
- Research
- The research focused on material innovation and ergonomics in furniture design. The objective was to explore the structural potential of armored glass in seating while ensuring comfort and durability. A combination of material testing, prototyping, and user feedback was used. Strength and flexibility tests were conducted on laminated glass, and ergonomic studies involved trial seating experiences. The findings demonstrated that armored glass could provide both support and aesthetic lightness. This research challenges industry norms, inspiring new applications of glass in furniture and influencing sustainable, long-lasting design solutions.
- Inspiration
- This chair is inspired by a bold exploration of materials and forms, challenging conventional upholstery in home furniture. Drawing from the futuristic and avant-garde aesthetics seen in A Clockwork Orange and 2001: A Space Odyssey, the design embraces clean lines, transparency, and an almost cinematic presence. Extensive research focused on the structural potential of armored glass, leading to its innovative application in a lounge chair. The result is a timeless piece, detached from fleeting trends.
- Project Duration
- The project started in January 2024 in Guatemala city and finished in April 2024
