About Clip विश्रामासनम्
क्लिप् इति नाम बहिः-अन्तः उभयत्र स्थानार्थं निर्मितं विश्रामासनम् अस्ति। क्लिप्-आकृतेः प्रेरणा कागज-क्लिप्-वस्तुनः गृहीता, यया आसनस्य रूपं लघु क्रीडाशीलं च दृश्यते। क्लिप्-आकारयुक्तः इस्पात-ढाँचा उपयोक्तुः भारानुसारं नमति, येन उपवेशन-सुखं वर्धते। आसनस्य वक्रधातु-दण्डः एकं वलयं निर्माति, यत् लघु-वस्तूनां धारणाय उपयुज्यते। आसनं नमन-वेल्डिंग-वालुकाप्रक्षेपण-चूर्णलेपन-प्रक्रियाभिः इस्पातेन निर्मितम्। एकस्यैव द्रव्यस्य उपयोगेन उत्पादनं सरलं भवति, पुनश्चक्रीकरणं च समर्थ्यते।

- Production Technology
- Material: Steel. This design's production process involves four steps: bending metal pipes, welding, sandblasting, and powder coating. Despite its simplicity, these steps yield a visually striking piece of furniture that boasts both an artistic appearance and a relatively low production cost and difficulty. Also, the recycling process is significantly simplified, with only one material used throughout the chair's design.
- Design Challenge
- When creating the final prototype, it proved challenging to accurately determine the twisting angle and length of the steel rods for the backrest and seat portion. The calculations did not match the computer simulation precisely, making adjustments a significant obstacle to overcome.
- Research
- During the design process, a key consideration for me was how to make furniture more playful. Taking inspiration from the shapes of traditional outdoor chairs and everyday objects found in daily life, I created a form that strikes a balance between elegance and whimsy. The resulting design appears refined and delicate, yet also playful and lighthearted.
- Inspiration
- The Clip Chair is a versatile seating option that seamlessly transitions from outdoor to indoor environments. The design of this chair bears a resemblance to a paper clip, lending it a playful and whimsical aesthetic.
- Project Duration
- 12.2022
Brooklyn, New York - Operation Flow
- A lounge chair fits both outdoor and indoor spaces great. While serving as a comfortable seat, it can also serve as a decorative piece in user's home.
