About Fold Bangko

Ang Fold ay isang pampublikong bangko na nagsisilbi ring mesa. Ang disenyo ay binuo mula sa isang piraso ng plywood na tinupi pabalik sa sarili nito sa isang anggulo. Ang tupi ay lumilikha ng pangalawang ibabaw na maaaring gamitin bilang mesa, nang walang karagdagang extension o kalakip. Ang hugis ay nananatiling simple at matatag para sa paggamit sa mga pampublikong lugar. Ang plywood ay pinausukan at hinubog sa isang custom-built na hulmahan, at ginamitan ito ng tanso. Ang kabuuang sukat ay 1480 mm ang haba, 1010 mm ang lapad, at 730 mm ang taas.

Unique Properties
What if a bench is also a table?
Fold is an interpretation to the question above, to fulfil multiple functions yet retain a simplistic and sturdy form to be used in the public. This piece of furniture is not much more than a piece of plywood folded back on itself at an angle. Yet, this simple manipulation creates another surface that can be used as a table, without sacrificing its unanimous form with extensions or appendages.

Production Technology
Plywood and Bronze
Steam the plywood and put into a custom build mold for bending
Design Challenge
The most difficult part is bending the plywood in a specific angle which is also comfortable for the purpose of sitting with a table. and the placement of the legs are the second challenge to maintain the sturdiness while to balance with the proportions and ratio with the plywood.
Inspiration
Public bench design always strives for functionality but neglected the aesthetics, and also mostly only caters for the purpose of sitting. What if you are holding a coffee or you are looking for a place to sit down with your book or laptop? You don’t have a choice but to go to the café or restaurants. It’s time to think out of the box and create a piece of furniture that aesthetically addresses the convenience and flexibility of how a public bench can do for the people.
Project Duration
The project staretd in early 2019 and completed in production in late 2019.
