About Hui Mesang Lounge, Silyang Lounge

Ang Hui ay isang set ng lounge furniture, binubuo ng isang silya at maliit na mesa, na dinisenyo para sa pagbabasa at pag-inom ng tsaa. Ang anyo ng Ma Tau Wall, isang gable element ng Huizhou architecture sa Tsina, ay binago upang maging istruktural at dekorasyong bahagi ng kasangkapan. Ang set ay gawa sa beech, katad, at salamin, na pinagsama gamit ang tradisyonal na Chinese mortise and tenon craftsmanship. Malambot ang leather cushion at backrest, at nagbibigay ito ng sapat na suporta. May dalawang layer ang mesa, at ang mababang leather layer ay pwedeng paglagyan ng mga libro at magasin. Layunin nitong dalhin ang kulturang panrehiyon sa modernong tahanan.
