About Lens Series Colecție de Mobilier
Seria Lens este o colecție de mobilier inspirată de lentila convexă. Colecția include un paravan, o lampă de podea, o lampă de masă, o vază, un fotoliu, o măsuță de cafea, o măsuță laterală, o bancă și un scaun. Două materiale acrilice colorate complementare separă lumina de umbră. Finisajele mate și transparente sunt combinate, astfel încât culorile se schimbă odată cu lumina incidentă. Piesele metalice sunt realizate din oțel inoxidabil rezistent la amprente și sunt lustruite manual. Piesele metalice sunt îmbinate prin custuri teșite, ceea ce limitează utilizarea adezivilor și menține stabilitatea fiecărei piese.

- Production Technology
- The metal parts of the Lens Series are made of 304 metal forged fingerprint-resistant metal, and the curved surface of the metal parts need to be polished by hand, in order to fulfill the aesthetic aspect of the curvature and to keep the structure steady in use. PMMA materials are subject to the gradient color PMMA spraying process. Metal parts are inlaid to the glass profile with joints beveled, which not only avoid an excess use of adhesives and enhances eco-friendly property, but also keep the combination furniture firm and steady.
- Design Challenge
- How to make a trade-off in respect of art aesthetics and structural stability of the furniture is considered the biggest challenge in the design process. In the early phase of design, we chose to use tinted metal and colored PMMA glass. However, we came to realize that structural stability and comfort are crucial for furniture products, and the special material nature also challenges how we present the best art furniture.
