The Design

About Mai 12 Collection Silversmycken

Mai 12-kollektionen är en uppsättning silversmycken som omfattar en armring och en ring. Designen är inspirerad av de tolv indragna hörnen, kända som Mai 12, ett karaktärsdrag i traditionell thailändsk arkitektur där hörnen på en kvadratisk struktur är indragna. Kollektionen omtolkar den indragna stupaformen genom att vrida formen och förskjuta hörnen för att skapa dimension. Ett grajang-mönster pryder ytorna och ger delarna en samtida karaktär. Tillverkningen sker i silver med hjälp av datorstödd design- och tillverkningsteknik.

Production Technology: Silver Jewelry with Cad/Cam Technology
Design Challenge: The difficulty of this piece is both in design and manufacture.

In terms of design we try to design an architectural work which is a geometric shape, to delicate and beautiful ornament. In the form of contemporary Thai art

In terms of the production of the bangle, we have to think of a way to turn it on and off. It retains the shape of 12 indented corners, but can actually be worn. In addition, the workpiece has many corner. Making it difficult to produce It requires a relatively high craftmanship skill.
Research: Indented corners are a feature of traditional Thai architecture where the corners of a rectangular structure are broken up into multiple recessed corners. The most common form features three angles at each of the structure's four corners, and is referred to as twelve indented corners, or Mai12. The form is featured extensively in the religious architecture of the late Ayutthaya period, and can be found in stupas (chedi), building columns, and the tiered spires of the prasat architectural form
Inspiration: Mai 12 Collection is inspired by the twelve indented corners (Mai 12: Thai word), which is the design of the Thai architectural style.
The twelve indented corners were used in the design of this collection. Re-design of form and shape, add delicacy by twisting the shape and creating dimension by shifting the 12-corners indented stupa. And adding a grajang pattern to decorate and design pieces to be a more contemporary shape.
