About Noiseless Chombo cha Maua

Noiseless ni chombo cha maua cha kaure kilichotengenezwa kwa mkono, kilichobuniwa kwa ajili ya mimea mirefu au mikubwa. Umbo lake limeundwa kwa mistari michache ili kusawazisha mwanga na kivuli. Uso wake ni kaure tupu wenye umbile laini na butu, na rangi ya kioo inayopenyeza mwanga imewekwa upande wa ndani pekee. Vipimo vyake vinatofautiana kutoka milimita 60 kwa 60 kwa 110 hadi milimita 100 kwa 100 kwa 240. Kila chombo ni kizito, hivyo maua yenye mashina marefu hubaki thabiti. Vinapowekwa pamoja, vyombo hivi husimama kama nguzo na kuunda kundi tulivu la rangi moja ambalo linaweza kupangwa kwa uhuru.

Design Challenge
The challenge consisted of the difference between the first picture and reality.
The first picture to the blue print.
Research
A study of simple, beautiful shapes, exploring the balance between light and shade. The aim was to pursue essential beauty without being distracted by decoration or color. An analog approach served as the source. Light of slightly different colors shines on both sides to accentuate the shadows and contours. Simple and beautiful shapes were formed by carving each of the wheel-thrown porcelain vases by hand. As a result, instead of accentuating the design with decorations and colors, a unique form was found. The characteristics of software do not influence it. It is as pure as it can get.
Inspiration
Being interested in how the form of an object is expressed by light and shadow the goal was to design a vase with a minimum of lines, carving out a balance between light and shade. The vases are arranged like columns. By leaving the flowers out of the vase, the path of creation for a monochrome silence was pursued. This creates freedom. Freedom in the arrangement of the vases and in the imagination in relation to the arrangement of the flowers.
Project Duration
The project startet in February 2018 in Berlin
Operation Flow
The light and shadows soften the look of this vase and make it suitable for any place. It can also be set to engage with flowers. Made like a weight, this vase, especially with long-stemmed flowers, makes a big difference and gives the impression of deviating from the norm. What you have there is an experience that you can share with others.
