About Cloud Siġġu

Cloud huwa siġġu ispirat minn ħalba xita li dehret fuq il-kosta tal-Gżira ta' Okinawa fil-Ġappun. Il-wiċċ tal-bilqiegħda huwa magħmul billi tiddaħħal fibra tal-poliester ġo fowm tal-poliuretan b'labra, li joħloq dehra ratba qisha sħaba. Sedil għoli jagħti lill-persuna bilqiegħda sensazzjoni li qiegħda f'wiċċ l-arja. Saqajn tal-azzar li ma jissaddadx b'finitura qisha mera u pedestall huma ffurmati minn vireg tondi rqaq li jesprimu x-xita nieżla. In-numru, it-tul u d-dijametru tal-vireg ġew determinati b'attenzjoni kbira. Cloud huwa magħmul bl-idejn mill-azzar li ma jissaddadx, fibra tal-poliester, injam u fowm tal-poliuretan.

Design Challenge
In addition, the number, length, and diameter of stainless steel round bars that express rain were carefully determined.
Research
I feel like the products in the world are now uniform.
Different regions have their own culture and nature.
Among them, I paid attention to nature.
I think of naturally inspired designs.
After that, repeat the verification of the material and structure.
I will announce the created design to the world and aim for commercialization.
I believe that doing so will enrich the uniform world.
Inspiration
The sky is connected everywhere in the world.
Many people have seen clouds.
A design inspired by nature will resonate with various people.
I live on Okinawa Island south of Japan.
One day, I saw a moving cloud while it rained on the coast.
The idea of this chair came up from the scenery at that time.
Project Duration
The project started in April 2019 and ended in October 2019.
Operation Flow
I think there are many people who have imagined when they were children that they could sit on clouds.
I realized that imagination.
Poetic products enrich the emotions of users.
In addition, this product makes the surrounding space visually enjoyable.
