About Orange Link Fanishara ya Bana

Orange Link ke letoto la fanishara le entsweng bakeng sa bana. Letoto lena le kopanya patsi e tiileng ya ash le manonyeletso a polasetiki ya boenjiniere ya mmala wa lamunu. Dikarolo tsa patsi di sehilwe ka CNC mme di phethetswe ka oli ya boka, ha dinotlo tsa mmala wa lamunu di entswe ka mokgwa wa ho bopa ka ho kenya polasetiki e qhibidihileng (injection molding). Manonyeletso a polasetiki a dikoloto a phuthela dikgokahano tsa patsi, a tlosa mekokotlo e bohale mme a tataisa ho ama. Manonyeletso a kenanang hape a nolofatsa kopanyo mme a tshehetsa tlhahiso e sebetsang hantle. Ditekanyo di latela boholo ba ho fihlella le pono ya bana, di thusa ho bala, ho etsa mesebetsi ya matsoho le ho hlophisa. Phapano ya mebala e kopanya mofuthu wa tlhaho le ho nepahala ha indasteri.

Behind the Design

Press Kit

Credits, team members and technical details provided by the designer.

Unique Properties: This furniture series blends warm solid wood with modern engineering plastics. By wrapping wooden joints in vibrant orange plastic, it creates a unique visual rhythm while ensuring maximum safety through a zero-edge design. Structurally, it unifies the stability of wood with the flexibility of injection molding, achieving a symbiotic balance between tradition and technology to foster a vibrant sensory growth environment for children.
Dimensions & Packaging: Sizes are 320 mm x 320 mm x 520 mm，490 mm x 245 mm x 520 mm，310 mm x 310 mm x 1100 mm, built with CNC and injection molding. Ergonomic dimensions fit children's reach and sight. Simple processing ensures stability, efficiency, and high mass production potential.

Production Technology: Crafted from ash wood and engineering plastics. Wood is CNC-cut and wax-oiled. Orange nodes use injection molding for strength and smoothness. Plastic interlocking joints simplify assembly and ensure high production efficiency.
Design Challenge: The challenge lies in achieving a seamless interlocking of natural wood and modern plastics. It requires balancing structural stability with rounded safety protection. The design uses the Orange-Link system to unify industrial standardization with natural warmth, ensuring functionality and safety while creating a high-impact visual aesthetic.
Research: This design explores the cross-application of solid wood and engineering plastics in children's furniture. Focusing on the Orange-Link system, it unifies structural connection with rounded protection. By using color contrast and tactile guidance, it breaks traditional wood constraints to create a logical, vibrant, and interactive growth environment for children.
Inspiration: The forms are inspired by the act of fastening buttons. Orange plastic parts serve as Orange-Links, locking wooden structures together like vibrant buttons. This core semantic defines the Orange-Link series, using simplified visual language to express logical material connections. Structurally, it merges wood stability with plastic flexibility, creating a modern aesthetic that balances structural strength with a playful, childlike spirit.
Project Duration: The design had started in Shenyang in January 2025, completed in Shenyang in June 2025, and displayed in the museum of Lu Xun Academy of Fine Arts in Shenyang in June in 2025.
Operation Flow: Ideal for children learning and playing. Rounded Orange-Link joints guide natural touch and interaction, providing skin-friendly, safe support for reading, crafting, or organizing. The blend of warm ash wood and vibrant orange stimulates creativity and enhances the interactive growth experience within the space.
