Lo Concèpte

A prepaus de Zig Escabèl

Lo design es inspirat del desir d'exposar las proprietats unicas del bòsc dins lo contèxt dels desafís tecnics qu'exigisson alhora beutat e foncionalitat. Per Jules S. Jaffe, aquò es lo desafís del design de mobilièr. Lo desafís aicí èra de provesir estabilitat e fòrça per acomodar un sentiment de leugièretat e de tension dins lo design final. L'escabèl resultant a una fòrça exemplara mas tanben un sentiment de leugièretat e de patz que la geometria, que remonta als pitagorians dont lo designer

Proprietats Unicas: The stool employs a unique triple mitered joint that did not exist before. The challenge here was to provide enough stability and strength to accommodate a feeling of lightness and tension in the final design.
Dimensions e Embalatge: 505 x 185 x 180
Etiquetas: stool, chair, sitting device
Tecnologia de Produccion: The design was realized in maple because it has the requisite capability to be accurately cut without worrying about splintering. This is actually version 4.2 that took place over 2 years with a variety of materials (oak) and a variety of machining techniques. Ultimately, a set of table saw fixtures that were precisely measured and inclined were used to have the surface meet with extremely high accuracy. The challenge with any cantilever is strength and stability. Hence the large mating surfaces. There are no screws or any other metal parts used in construction. Only wood. Purity of materials was a prime consideration.
Desaffo de Dissènh: The continuous challenge of creating functional items that are also aesthetically pleasing is a constant challenge. Research in form, function and the engineering needed to accomplish the mutual goals of fulfilling those aspirations is a constant pursuit. Ancient concepts related to the golden triangle and its harmony with human perception is related to the construction of this stool as it incorporates a triangular structure that also needs to be extremely stable. The final realization was an exercise in precise and multi-dimensional angles.
Recèrca: As with all projects the tension between good design and stability and strength in construction is paramount. In this case, many of the preliminary designs, when constructed cracked under the weight of the sitter. In addition, since the surface between the base and the supporting rod and the supporting rod and the seat are not orthogonal, it took a great deal of geometric reasoning to make those top and bottom surfaces parallel, as in any design close to this.
Inspiracion: Overall the stool is an homage to Gerrit Rietveld. However it incorporates a Zen-like feeling of peacefulness and rest but with the tension of a cantilever. Hence, it uses contrasting elements to achieve its unique design. The stool inspires sitting upright in a meditative position and is also excellent for artists such as guitarists and cellists to use as it has no protruding parts and the base retracts from the seat edge. It is very stable but allows freedom of movement.
Durada del Projècte: The project took 2 years to execute in a workshop in La Jolla, CA, USA.
Flux Operacional: Simply sit on it.
Brevets: None
