The Design

About Taiwan Imagery Cadeira

Taiwan Imagery é uma cadeira inspirada na cultura tradicional taiwanesa. O design combina a bolsa KA-TSI, uma sacola tecida de uso corrente em Taiwan, com a Cadeira Tai-Shi, uma poltrona clássica chinesa em madeira presente nas primeiras casas taiwanesas. Junco e alumínio são os principais materiais. A cadeira mede 500 por 980 por 710 milímetros. O encosto, o assento e as pernas formam três partes distintas unidas por parafusos, tornando o transporte compacto e a fabricação mais simples. Um molde controla as formas curvas e reduz os erros de produção.

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.
