About Dihedral लाउंज खुर्ची

डायहेड्रल ही भूमितीय आकार आणि सममित घटकांपासून बनवलेली लाउंज खुर्ची आहे. या डिझाइनमध्ये आसन आणि पाठसमर्थनासाठी नियमित तसेच अंतर्वक्र षटकोनी आकारांचा मेळ घातला आहे. षटकोन हा आकार निवडण्यात आला कारण तो निसर्गात आढळतो आणि मजबूत, नियमित संरचना तयार करतो. मिड-सेंच्युरी मॉडर्न शैलींचा प्रभाव या खुर्चीच्या स्वच्छ आणि नीटनेटक्या स्वरूपावर दिसून येतो. डायहेड्रल ही घन रबरवुडपासून बनवलेली असून तिला वॉलनट ब्राऊन फिनिश देण्यात आले आहे आणि फोम पॅडिंगवर फॉक्स लेदरने अपहोल्स्टर केले आहे. ही लाउंज खुर्ची केवळ घरातील वापरासाठी बनवण्यात आली आहे.

Production Technology
The choice of materials were selected purposefully to create a high contrast that displays its unique design, while also considering its economic and sustainability impacts. The chair is constructed from solid rubberwood with walnut brown finish, and is upholstered in faux leather and padded with foam.
Design Challenge
Finding a solution to merge some of the regular and concave hexagonal shapes without compromising comfort and aesthetics was a sure feat in complexity. I had to explore the necessary cutting requirements for wood milling as there are a number of simple, yet complex geometries with merging the left, right, and back leg with the seat frame.
Research
The initial goal of the Dihedral chair was to create a simplistic yet elegant design based off of the hexagon, which is one of nature's strongest shapes. The initial research was an iterative process that focused on symmetry, form, and pushing the essence of what makes a lounge chair. The process consisted of free sketches, real scale modeling, and 3D printing.
Inspiration
The Dihedral chair is heavily influenced by mid-century modern styles to create an aesthetically clean look, while simultaneously merging geometric shapes to create a structural and practical design. The base shape of the Dihedral chair is inspired by hexagons, which can often be found in nature and can be used to build strong and regular structures.
Project Duration
The project started in January 2023 in Houston, TX, USA and finished in February 2023.
Operation Flow
Due to the choice of materials the chair is designed for indoor use only and is not suitable for wet and humid conditions outside. The selected material is very moisture absorbent and direct contact with water should be avoided to extend its life cycle
