About Lift Mosebetsi wa Mantlha: Shelefu e Nkehang

Mongolo wa Buka: Lift ke shelefu e nkehang e etselitsweng ho bontsha dibuka le dimakasine. Lift ha e eme e le yona, kahoo lerako lefe kapa lefe le ka sebeletsa e le tshehetso ya yona. Diron tse pedi tsa plywood tsa sebopeho sa zigzag di theha sebopeho se ka sehloohong. Mekoallo ya lehong le koporo e hokahanya diron tseo le tshehetsa dimakasine, ha ditrei tsa tshepe e mosehla di tshehetsa dibuka tse emang. Ditrei tsena di ba tse patisaneng haholoanyane ha di ntse di ya hodimo. Lift e na le bolelele ba 2000 mm, bophara ba 600 mm, mme e boima ba 23 kg, e le hore motho a le mong a ka e jara. Moralo ona o qoba mekgabiso e eketsehileng le ho fokotsa palo ya dikarolo ka ho sebedisa marako a teng.

Unique Properties: Lift exhibits books & magazines, the metal trays for standing books and the cooper bars for hanging magazines. As a dependent product, it is created by the idea of tailoring furniture to spaces. The initial vision of this project is to avoid ornamentation and reducing the usage of components and make a product that could benefit from its surrounding to function. Therefore inspiration of Lift formed by gazing through dependent products ,such as ladder, that need a wall to function.
Dimensions & Packaging: Lift has 2000 mm height, 600 mm wide and maximum distance of it from any wall could not be more than 400 mm at the bottom.
Tags: Shelf, Adaptable, Portable, Bookcase, Display
Production Technology: Primarily, idea of project formed by sketching and analyzing average human size. Model making and form finding are generated in Rhino. Production planing and shop drawings occurred by Aouto CAD. Two wooden frames and the bottom tray are made out of 18 mm plywood and cut by CNC machine. Yellow metal trays are made out of steel, cut by CNC machine and are bent by bending machine. They ate then hand-painted carefully in 5 layers. For wooden book supports, beech wood is turned by hand and wooden profiles with the diameter of 25 mm are made. Finally 8 mm metal profile with the look of copper are used for making magazine holders. As an assembly item, it is created out of four kinds of components and three raw materials,%80 Wood and %20 Metal. The total weight is 23 Kg and it is easy to be carried by one person.
Design Challenge: The challenge was to find the right angle to stand safely without gliding.
Research: Type of research was experimental, based on analyzing all kinds of human body anatomy and disabilities. The objective is to avoid designing some of the necessary components but benefiting from the existing architectural elements to complete the design. Research methodology is based on case studies and observing physical habits and interactions of end users with similar products. As a result, Lift provides simple shelving system in multiple height levels for any human height level with two presentation options, hang or stand. Adaptability is unique part of its identity which adds value to the product as it adapts with multiple tastes and habits.
Inspiration: The inspiration is adaptability. The design is based on minimizing energy,material usage & time for producing extra parts for this product when any space could address those needs. By maximizing the use of walls the usage of material for creating components of shelf breaks off. Therefore one of the unique aspects of Lift is the fact of not being freestanding. Any wall could perform as its support.
Project Duration: The project started in May 2017 in New York. The technical drawings and prototype edition finished in July 2018. The final product got funded and produced in January 2019.
Operation Flow: This product could fit in a 210 cm x 70 cm box. The two large zigzag columns are the main structural elements and contain two sizes of holes on the facing side. They have to be parallel. Cooper and wooden bars would fit in the holes and connect the two columns as part of the structure. Tray holder also plays a fundamental role in the structure of Lift and keeps static of the bottom of this shelf steady. All the yellow trays are in multiple sizes to fit on each row as the shelf height increases it becomes narrower in depth and the distance between wooden lines decrease. Therefore the most bottom line contains the largest size of tray and the highest line, the smallest size.
