About Obsidian Wing Lounge Chair

Ang Obsidian Wing ay isang lounge chair na idinisenyo para sa mga kontemporaryong tahanan, mga espasyo ng sining at mga boutique na opisina. Ang upuan ay hango sa hugis ng mga pakpak ng ibon, na isinasalin ang estruktura ng buto ng pakpak at mga linya ng tensyon sa muwebles. Ang backrest na hugis pakpak ay yumayakap sa nakaupong tao at nagbibigay ng pakiramdam ng kanlungan at suporta. Ginagamit ang high performance na plastik bilang pangunahing materyal, na hinubog sa pamamagitan ng 3D printing at tumpak na computer controlled machining. Ang ibabaw nito ay may matte black na finish na may nakalapat na mga linyang metal na pilak. Ang sukat ng Obsidian Wing ay 550 x 650 x 800 milimetro.

Production Technology
Using high performance plastic as the base material, it is formed through an integrated process of 3D printing and precision CNC machining, accurately achieving complex surfaces and load bearing structures. The surface is coated with a matte finish and embedded with metal silver wires, balancing lightweight characteristics with excellent load bearing performance.
Design Challenge
The core concept of the design is to transform the imagery of wings providing protection and extension into the form of a chair. The main challenge lies in balancing the lightness of the wing like structure with its load bearing capacity, achieving a fusion of metallic silver lines and matte black textures.
Research
Seated in the chair feels like growing obsidian wings, freezing a moment of burgeoning power into static form. Its enveloping wing like structure creates psychological shelter, turning sitting into a posture of gathering momentum. Exploring bionic integration with modern furniture, it balances aesthetics and ergonomics, presenting a design both powerful and poetic.
Inspiration
Inspired by the imagery of sitting as if sprouting black wings, the chair draws on the fluid structure of avian wing bones, mechanical distribution of wing spars, and tension lines of tendons, translating the grace and power of nature into furniture language. It offers a sense of being guarded and supported, symbolizing rest, release, and spiritual freedom from daily routine.
Project Duration
The design had started in Shenyang in January 2025, completed in Shenyang in June 2025, and displayed in the museum of Lu Xun Academy of Fine Arts in Shenyang in June in 2025.
Operation Flow
Suitable for modern home living rooms, artistic studies, luxury model rooms, boutique hotel lounges, and creative office spaces. It can serve as a focal art piece for the space, combining practical functionality with visual appeal, and complements a variety of design styles such as luxury, and avant garde.
