About Focal ڪتابن جي الماري

فوڪل ڪتابن جي الماري نيو ڪلاسيڪي تناسب کي آرٽ ڊيڪو جي نفاست سان گڏ ڪري ٿي، جنهن ۾ ڌاتو جا ستون ۽ غير متناسب ڪنڊ ڪٽيل شيلف جا ڪنارا شامل آهن جيڪي هڪ متحرڪ پر متوازن شڪل پيش ڪن ٿا. تعميراتي تال مان الهام حاصل ڪندي، اها کلاسيڪي نفاست کي جديد ڪاريگري سان ضم ڪري ٿي. درستگي سان ڪٽيل ۽ هٿ سان تيار ڪيل مٿاڇرن هڪ هموار بناوٽ کي يقيني بڻائين ٿيون، جڏهن ته لڪيل ڪنيڪشن پوائنٽس ساختي مضبوطي فراهم ڪن ٿا، اڏامندڙ شيلفس جو وهم پيدا ڪندي ۽ ڊزائن جي نفيس جمالياتي احساس کي وڌائيندي.

Production Technology
Focal Bookcase is crafted from a perfect fusion of high-quality wood and brass materials. The surfaces are shaped using Cnc cutting and finished by hand to achieve an exceptional smoothness. The brass columns serve as structural supports, while the asymmetrical chamfered edges of the shelves add dynamism to the design. The enhanced material structure ensures durability and long-lasting use.
Design Challenge
The main design challenge of the Focal Bookcase was adapting architectural elements to a furniture scale while maintaining a balanced structure. Specially developed hidden connection points were implemented to allow the brass columns to function as structural supports without losing their delicate form, ensuring that the shelves remain suspended in the air.
Research
Research on Neoclassical architecture and Art Deco design principles formed the foundation of Focal Bookcase’s inspiration. The architectural column form was combined with refined brass details to achieve a balance between aesthetics and functionality in furniture. Material, proportion, and symmetry analyses supported the integrity of the design.
Inspiration
Focal Bookcase draws inspiration from the balanced symmetry of Neoclassical architecture and the refined details of Art Deco. The brass supports, resembling vertical columns, reflect the rhythmic form of architectural structures. By combining the modernism of the 1920s with fine craftsmanship and luxurious materials, it offers a timeless design. With its flawless craftsmanship and surface details, it embodies the harmony of classical and contemporary aesthetics.
Project Duration
The project began with the initial sketches during a trip to Paris in 2023. The production was completed in 2024, in Ankara.
Operation Flow
Focal Bookcase is designed to be both decorative and functional. It offers an ideal shelf arrangement for books, objects, and artworks, while the vertical brass columns enhance stability. The asymmetrical edge details create a different perspective from every angle, adding aesthetic dynamism to the space.
