About Castellar Uhifadhi wa Zana za Ushonaji

Castellar ni seti ya vyombo vya kuhifadhi vyenye sumaku kwa ajili ya zana za ushonaji. Vyombo hivi huwekwa juu ya mashine ya kushona, hivyo eneo la juu la meza hubaki wazi wakati wa kazi. Mishipi huhifadhiwa katika sehemu ya daraja, jambo linalopunguza eneo la kuhifadhi linalohitajika mezani na kuweka kundi kamili la mishipi tayari kwa kazi moja. Sindano huhifadhiwa kwenye sehemu ya kisanduku kwa nguvu ya sumaku. Umbo la koni linaloingia chini huwezesha sindano kutolewa bila kuumiza mkono, na nyuso nne hutenganisha aina tofauti za sindano. Seti hii hutengenezwa kwa mbinu ya kuchoma plastiki (plastic injection molding) pamoja na sumaku.

Design Challenge
There are so many kinds of tailoring tools and accessories are being used during work, so it took me a lot time to classified them and observe the timing they are used and the way they are taken, and finally find a suitable way to store them.
Research
The tailor ladies are the historical significance and a common memories of everyone in Taiwan. According to my survey research, Taiwanese generally respect the traditional tailor's profession, but most people's impression of them is crowded space and messy table, which leading to the low willingness to learn among young people, end up emerging industrial age faults. Therefore, I want to to create an orderly and convenient working environment through integrating the storage of appliances, improving not only the efficiency but also their professional image.
Inspiration
The tailor ladies are the historical significance and a common memories of everyone in Taiwan. I want to create an orderly and convenient working environment through integrating the storage of appliances, and improve not only the efficiency but also the professional image of tailor ladies. During research, I found that the tailors tend to put objects on the sewing machine and set notes on it with a magnet, and since the tailoring tools are mostly made with stainless steel, I decided to use the space above the machine, combined with magnetic to do more effective storage.
Project Duration
The project is started in Taiwan from Sep. 2017 and to Jan. 2018.
Operation Flow
I found that the tailors tend to put objects on the sewing machine and set notes on it with a magnet, and the tailoring tools are mostly made with stainless steel, so I decided to use the space above the machine, combined with magnetic to do more effective storage, improving not only the efficiency but also the professional image of tailors.
