About Mix and Match Курсии нишастгоҳ

Матни китоб: Mix and Match маҷмӯаи курсиҳои нишастгоҳ мебошад, ки барои меҳмонхонаҳо, даромадгоҳҳо ва биноҳои тиҷоратӣ пешбинӣ шудааст. Ҳар як курсӣ дорои рӯйпӯши фанераи чӯбӣ аз булут, чормағз ё тинео буда, дорои кушодагиҳое мебошад, ки барои устувор нигоҳ доштани курсиҳо хизмат мекунанд. Пойҳои курсиҳо гирифта шуда, ба ҷои онҳо механизме насб карда мешавад, ки онҳоро ба курсии нишастгоҳ мустаҳкам мекунад ва имкон медиҳад, ки онҳо озодона давр зананд. Се андозаи курсии нишастгоҳ барои ду, се ё чор курсӣ пешбинӣ шудаанд, ва шаш намуди курсӣ пешниҳод мешавад. Инчунин мизи хурд ва розеткаҳои заряддиҳии USB илова карда шуда метавонанд, ки ин имкон медиҳад бисёр таркибҳои гуногун сохта шаванд.

Production Technology
This piece is produced in two distinct stages: first, the creation of a wooden bench, in which there are holes for fitting chairs. This part has a very simple and discreet design so that the chairs can shine. Second, selection of the chairs for placement on the wooden benches. All the different models are adapted, their legs are removed and a mechanism developed for this object is placed in each one. This will allow them to be secured embedded in the wooden bench. The main materials are three different wood veneers, lacquer and chair's materials.
Design Challenge
As this object is intended for commercial uses, the main challenge was the choice of chairs with all the certifications required by hospitality and contract projects.
Research
The inspiration for our objects comes from the most unusual ways. But we are passionate about our work and every time we have an idea we give it a name and a number and explore it until its last consequences. If it is original, we will find a way to make it. Designed mostly for hotels, entrances and commercial buildings, Mix and Match is a fun way to sit and wait, that makes us smile every time we look at it. This object was designed in 2019, in Portugal. The first prototype was presented at Valencia fair, last September, just to see the acceptance. It was a success and we decided to go forward.
Inspiration
The inspiration for this object was born of all the magnificent chairs that exist in the market and we all love. If we go back to the middle of the 20th century, we realize that the chairs that make us sigh today were (magnificently) drawn at that time.
There is nothing left to invent ... just reinvent and pay tribute.
Following this concept, Mix and Match revisits some of these classics in a funny way, decontextualizes them, removes some elements and presents them with a twist.
Project Duration
This object was designed in the 1st semester of 2019, in Portugal.
Operation Flow
The use of this object is as basic and natural as breathing. People sit on the chairs and can rotate them freely on the bench. As an option, there is the possibility of placing a usb charging plug to charge mobile phones and even small tables to use a laptop.
