About Coastline Miza

Coastline je miza, navdihnjena z dvigovanjem morske gladine zaradi globalnega segrevanja. Namizna plošča je izdelana iz akrila, znanega tudi kot PMMA, in oblikovana z visokotemperaturnim segrevanjem, da spominja na bistro morsko vodo. Nosilna konstrukcija je izdelana iz lesa vrste michelia compressa in bora, pri čemer les predstavlja višino gora. Izbran je bil trd les, da se konstrukcija med segrevanjem ne bi deformirala. Neravni rob spominja na obalno črto, ki jo je erodiralo morje, kombinacija materialov pa omogoča, da svetloba prehaja skozi plasti. Miza meri 350 mm v širino, 650 mm v globino in 500 mm v višino.

Production Technology
The table top is mainly made of PMMA, and the table is mainly made of michelia compressa and Pine.
Design Challenge
Liquid acrylic material is selected as the table top. Liquid acrylic shaping requires high-temperature heating. Therefore, hard wood is selected so that it will not deform during heating.
Considering the above, in the end, the desktop wood is chosen to use the hard texture Michelia compressa wood.
Liquid acrylic color grading is also one of the big challenges. It takes a lot of time for each test to get the best color and transmittance.
Inspiration
Taking the rising sea level caused by global warming as the starting point, the coastline was eroded by the seawater and showed an uneven appearance, making the table more layered.
Project Duration
The project started in January 2017 in Taiwan. And finished in June 2017 in Taiwan. And was exhibited in Songshan Cultural and Creative Park in June 2017. For the second time in Taipei Pavilion of fashion in November 2019.
Operation Flow
This is a table with good light transmission and beauty.
