About Cloud Kiti
Cloud ni kiti kilichopata msukumo kutoka kwa mvua ya rasharasha iliyoonekana juu ya pwani ya Kisiwa cha Okinawa nchini Japani. Sehemu ya kukalia imetengenezwa kwa kuchoma nyuzi za polyester ndani ya povu la polyurethane kwa kutumia sindano, jambo linalounda mwonekano laini unaofanana na wingu. Kiti kirefu humpa mtu aliyekaa hisia ya kuelea. Miguu ya chuma cha pua inayong'aa kama kioo na kitako vimetengenezwa kwa vijiti vyembamba vya mviringo vinavyoonyesha mvua inayonyesha. Idadi, urefu na kipenyo cha vijiti hivyo vilibainishwa kwa makini. Cloud imetengenezwa kwa mikono kutoka kwa chuma cha pua, nyuzi za polyester, mbao na povu la polyurethane.

- I feel like the products in the world are now uniform.
Different regions have their own culture and nature.
Among them, I paid attention to nature.
I think of naturally inspired designs.
After that, repeat the verification of the material and structure.
I will announce the created design to the world and aim for commercialization.
I believe that doing so will enrich the uniform world. - Inspiration
- The sky is connected everywhere in the world.
Many people have seen clouds.
A design inspired by nature will resonate with various people.
I live on Okinawa Island south of Japan.
One day, I saw a moving cloud while it rained on the coast.
The idea of this chair came up from the scenery at that time. - Project Duration
- The project started in April 2019 and ended in October 2019.
