About Accordio Nyumba ya Kipenzi
Accordio ni nyumba ya kipenzi inayobebeka iliyotengenezwa kwa silikoni. Muundo wake mwepesi hukunjika kama akodioni, hivyo nyumba hiyo inaweza kubebwa kwa urahisi wakati wa shughuli za nje na safari. Uso wa silikoni ni rahisi kusafisha. Kubonyeza pande zote mbili kunabana nyumba hiyo hadi sehemu ya sita ya ukubwa wake kamili. Fremu nane za sumaku zilizoimarishwa hutoa uthabiti wa kimuundo na kuunganisha umbo lililokunjwa pamoja, kuhifadhi mwonekano bapa na mdogo. Godoro la kitambaa linalofaa ndani ya nyumba iliyokunjwa hurahisisha usafirishaji.

- Production Technology
- Accordio is made with silicone. Each magnetic frame (a total of 8) is reinforced for structural stability. Once collapsed, these frames adhere each other and keep it compact and portable.
- Design Challenge
- The biggest challenge was how to keep accordio in a flattened shape when it is collapsed. Several ways were explored such as snap buttons, strap and etc. Amongst them, magnetic frames were chosen to be an ideal solution as they could provide structural stability as well as visual clarity.
- Research
- Accordio is a design study about portable pet houses. The design explores the use of silicone for pet housing. The light-weighted and safe nature of silicone provides many potentials for a portable pet house.
- Inspiration
- Accordio was first inspired by my niece's silicone bowl plate. I was intrigued by its flexibility and portability. After some research, I found that silicone also has a fascinating collapsible feature, which was later adopted into a foldable house.
- Project Duration
- The project started in June 2020 in Calgary, Canada and finished in July 2020 in Banff, Canada.
- Operation Flow
- This silicone house can be compressed in a 1/6 size by pushing both sides. A fabric cushion can be conveniently fit into the collapsed form for portability.
