The Design

About Oo2 Skrivebord

Oo2 er et ledelsesskrivebord med et feminint uttrykk. Bordets grunnform består av to kuber, hvor den ene fungerer som arbeidsflate og den andre som oppbevaringsboks. Plater av bøyd tre dekker kubene og gir dem eleganse og visuell rikdom. Tynne ben forbinder kubene og plasserer dem til slutt på gulvet. Målet med utformingen av Oo2 var å oppnå en form som ville være funksjonell og se luksuriøs, elegant og feminin ut, samtidig som den var enkel.

Plates of bent wood cover the cubes and give them elegance and visual richness. Thin legs connect the cubes and finally place them on the ground.
The goal in designing oo2 was to achieve a form that would be functional and look luxurious, elegant and feminine at the same time as being simple.

Production Technology: The cubes that make up the overall form are made of wood and painted. Curved panels are made of bent and compressed wooden layers that are either painted or covered with steel sheet. A very thin groove is embedded on the work surface, and a steel bar is placed inside it to define the area of the leather under the user's hand in addition to the beauty. The inside of the drawers are covered with red velvet and the bronze handles of the drawers are decorated with jewels.
Design Challenge: providing the stability of the table while maintaining the elegance of the bases was the main issue for the construction of oo2. For this purpose, bends were created in the metal bases to increase the resistance of the thin bars against lateral forces, and also to connect the bases to the table, a network of crossed bars in the form of three branches was designed to create a secure connection. At the point of connection of the base to the ground, a separate piece was designed, which is connected to the base with three screws to be resistant to joint forces and to prevent the end of the base from bending.

The goal in designing oo2 was to achieve a form that would be functional and look luxurious, elegant and feminine at the same time as being simple. oo2 is inspired by the qualities and details of female beauty. Coco Chanel's way of thinking in 1920-1930 in introducing modern women has been the role model in this project.
For this reason, black and white color was considered as the main color and pieces of bronze and jade stone were used to evoke ornaments. Delicate legs were prominently displayed to remind a woman in the LBD(a dress by coco chanel).
oo is written as oo in Farsi and is the third person singular pronoun. The name of this object refers to an absent woman, a woman who is not present, but is embodied.
