About The Wink Collection Silya

Ang Wink Collection ay isang hanay ng mga upuan na kinabibilangan ng mga silyang pangkainan, silyang pampahingahan, at silyang pang-bar. Ang bawat piraso ay may convex na eliptikal na sandalan na hugis-mata, na sinusuportahan ng manipis na binti na gawa sa matibay na kahoy. Ang mga anyo ay ginagawa gamit ang teknolohiyang CNC na sinamahan ng tradisyunal na kasanayan sa paggawa ng kahoy. Ang mga anodized na bahagi ng metal na hinulma ay nag-uugnay sa sandalan patungo sa frame, na nagdaragdag ng lakas habang pinapanatiling magaan at bukas ang estruktura. Ang sandalan ay inaalok sa purong kahoy o may upholstery na may foam backing, at may magagamit ding mga kahoy na napagkukunan sa paraang napapanatili. Ang kurbadong hugis ng likod ay sumusuporta sa mahabang oras ng pag-uusap habang nakaupo.

Production Technology: JMS continues to master wood materials by using CNC technology combined with traditional wood working skills. This melding of machine and man create new eye popping designs with a contemporary twist leading to a signature style. The slender massive wooden legs of Wink and the convex elliptical eye shaped backrest is a result of This play of technology and tradition. The backrest can be upholstered with foam backing to enhance comfort or in massive wood.
Available in oak, birch or walnut woods.
Design Challenge: To achieve the desired transparency and lightness so that the inherent properties of each material can be enhanced, each element needed to be separately addressed but solved as one entity. Adding a cast metal part in manufacturing process, optimizes production by upholstering the back rest separately while adding strength to its connection to the wooden frame. These designed elements would prevent the heavy appearance of typical massive wooden chairs.
Inspiration: A wink, to tantalize. A visual cue to flirt and attract. An elliptical eye shaped wooden back rest upon finely shaped feminine legs. An embodiment of feminine charms: glimmer, elegance, and strength. The anodized metal casting part adds shine and strength to the seat back, legs are thinly tapered to provide lift and lightness. Armrest detailing of an upper and lower parts provide the embrace.
Sustainably sourced Beech or Ash woods are available for the desired warmth and color.
Project Duration: Wink collection is manufactured in Rebordosa, Portugal. The project is finished and introduced to the market in 2021.
Operation Flow: The back is ergonomically curved and shaped to enable guests to nourish long conversations, diners to linger over multiple course dinners, or professionals cherishing cocktails.
