About Toke Dekoratibong Bookshelf

Ang Toke ay isang dekoratibong tabletop bookshelf na idinisenyo para sa mga interior na espasyo. Isang pinakintab na limewood na bilog na may diyametrong 16 sentimetro ang nasa gitna ng disenyo at nagsisilbing suporta at punto ng balanse. Gumagalaw ang bilog ayon sa grabidad at pinapanatiling maayos ang mga libro. Ang frame ay gawa sa espesyal na binaluktot na metal rod at hinating metal plate, pinagdugtong sa pamamagitan ng welding at tinapos gamit ang electrostatic powder paint. Ang Toke ay may taas na 18 sentimetro, lapad na 49 sentimetro at lalim na 16.5 sentimetro. Ang simpleng anyo nito ay angkop sa mga sala, silid-tulugan, restawran, cafe at tindahan.

Design Challenge
Selecting and processing the appropriate natural material, polishing it to the correct color after processing. Selecting the correct metal sheet and rod, and joining them together after bending and cutting methods.
Research
When designing Toke, it was crucial to select the right material for the sphere at its center. We debated extensively between beech, hornbeam, or walnut. Because exotic woods are generally expensive, we settled on linden, which was readily available locally. Its soft texture made it easy to work with and polish.

For the metal, we strived to select dimensions and thicknesses that could be easily machined on cnc and bending machines. We then engaged local craftsmanship and assembled the parts using welding.

We tried to evaluate different color options for the metal part. We chose both electrostatic paint and gold and silver plating as alternative methods.
Inspiration
Toke's story is built on the theme of "Balance point and the flow of knowledge." Toke acts as a bridge, holding, displaying, and elegantly balancing precious information (books). The wooden sphere, the central element of the design, forms the weight and focal point of the entire system, creating an illusion of gravity by balancing the books' position. This reflects the idea that knowledge is a central force that keeps our minds and lives in balance.
Project Duration
The project began in istanbul, Türkiye, in January 2025. The first prototype was released in May 2025. Mass production began in July 2025.
Operation Flow
The sphere in Toke moves thanks to gravity and balances the books on it, ensuring they stay in order.
