About Aluminum Laulau Itu

O le Alumini o se laulau moe ua fuafuaina ina ia faigofie ma faafaigofie le teuina o mea. Ua faapipiiina le laulau i se apaau ma se pito loloto, ina ia mafai ai ona teu ma suʻe mea e oo lava i le pogisa. O se puna moli ua tuʻufaatasia i totonu o le pito i luga e faagaoioia e ala i le paʻi atu i luga o le laulau, ma o lona tulaga ua totosina ai le siosiomaga lata ane. O le tino e tipiina mai le alumini e ala i le vai malosi (water jet) ma faapiʻoina i luga o se press brake. O le foliga fafo ua faia i le sandblasting ma le anodizing, ma o le au faasee (sliders) e lolomiina i le 3D. O le laulau e fua i le 340 i le 360 i le 500 mm.

Unique Properties: Great emphasis has been given to the functionality of the storage space.In addition to a drawer, the bedside table is fitted with a recessed niche, which gives users considerable security and ease of access when storing and putting away items even in the dark. Another outstanding feature is the integrated light source in the top compartment, operated by touching the table top, which thanks to its inset position suitable lights up the space.
Dimensions & Packaging: Dimensions: W340 x D360 x H500 mm
Tags: aluminiumtable, bedsidetable, sidetable, aluminium, light
Production Technology: The aluminum used was cut with a water jet and bent on a press brake.The aluminum surface is sandblasted and finally anodized. The sliders are 3D printed.
Design Challenge: The most difficult point was shaping and working with aluminum and integrating touch technology.
Research: In early creation, 3D printing was used to create a model, which was then used to determine ideal proportions.
In the next phase, it was necessary to solve the resistances in electrical engineering during the implementation of the touch switch and achieving the correct function.
Inspiration: The goal was to create a product with a sincere and timeless design. The aim was to highlight the essence of the product and to make the time spent on the bed more pleasant.
Project Duration: The product was designed and manufactured in the Czech Republic
Operation Flow: Easy touch switch and easily accessible storage spaces.
Opening the drawer is intuitive and more individual, because it does not focus on the solid handle and the touch switch motivates to touch, which makes the bedside table more intimate.
