The Design

About Taiwan Imagery Cadièra

Taiwan Imagery es una cadièra inspirada de la cultura tradicionala taiwanesa. La concepcion combina lo sac KA-TSI, un sac tissat comunament utilizat a Taiwan, amb la Cadièra Tai-Shi, un fautuèlh classic en bois chinés utilizat dins las primièras maisons taiwaneses. Lo jonc e l'aluminium son los materials principals. La cadièra fa 500 per 980 per 710 millimètres. L'esquina, lo coissin e las cambas formen tres partidas separadas ajustadas amb vises, çò que rend lo transpòrt compacte e la fabricacion mai simpla. Un mòtle contraròtla las formas corbadas e redusís las errors de produccion.

Unique Properties: The KA-TSI bag, which is often used by Taiwanese, and the Tai-Shi Chair from the early days of the family were used for the fusion.
Dimensions & Packaging: 500mm x 980mm x 710mm
Tags: Culture,Traditional,KA-TSI bag,Tai-Shi Chair
Production Technology: bulrush (phôo tsháu)/Aluminum
Design Challenge: The special curvature makes it easy to produce errors, so after many experiments we chose to use a mold to control its shape.
Research: The earliest KA-TSI bags were knitted with bulrush (phôo tsháu).
KA-TSI Chair is taken from Tai-Shi Chair, the Chinese wooden fauteuil. Named after the official title, the Tai-Shi Chair is a classical Chinese furniture used by the Taiwanese earlier.
Inspiration: We hope to bring the traditional culture of Taiwan into this design, so that the tradition can be reproduced by design.
Project Duration: The project starts in Turin in October 2022 and ends in Taiwan in December 2022.
Operation Flow: The whole chair is divided into three parts, the back, cushion and legs, and assembled with screws, so that it will not take up space when transporting and can be more easily processed and manufactured.
