About Knotted Урам

Төенләнгән — эчке һәм тышкы мәйданнар өчен иҗтимагый мебель итеп эшләнгән утыргыч. Форма тоташу һәм хәрәкәтне күрсәтер өчен тасма кебек бәйләнгән. Кулланылган электр чыбык торбасы кул белән бөгелә, кабель бәйләгечләр белән бәйләнә һәм нигез итеп торучы тутыкмас корыч торба аякларга беркетелә. Тәмамланган төзелеш нык һәм тотрыклы, ә бизәлеше бертөрле, тонык кара төстә эшләнгән. Торба өслеге йомшак тәэсир бирә, ә формасы берничә утыру халәтен мөмкин итә. Төенләнгән төрле буыннарның берләшүе, төрле тормышларның бер бөтен итеп кушылу идеясен чагылдыра.

Unique Properties
The project started with a focus on a life where everyone can coexist, a sustainable environment and discarded materials. A form tied together like a ribbon was expressed, and the bench tied to cable ties and stain pipes by using waste wire ELP pipe that is no longer used can function as public furniture and serve as recycled furniture. It is useful in indoor and outdoor spaces where everyone gathers together, and has a shape that induces various postures.

Production Technology
Materials used were wire ELP conduit, cable ties, and stainless pipe. Structural stained steel pipes were fabricated as the legs of the bench. Then, the wire help pipe was tied with cable ties and tied back to the stainless steel pipe. It is a solid and stable structure. The complex structure looks neat and is unified in matte black
Design Challenge
When bending and tying the pipe by hand, the pipe must not be wrinkled or deformed. It was necessary to make the pipes with a feeling of use clean so that they could function as furniture. The cable ties were fixed cleanly and completely so that the tied pipes would not come loose.
Research
Through this work, tried to recognize the generational conflict that has become an issue as a social problem and to recognize the positive direction of generational integration. Induced a way for everyone to sit on a bench completed with a single string and connect and communicate. Furniture embodies the aesthetic sense of generational integration
Inspiration
The starting point of this work began with an interest in intergenerational conflict and thoughts about the generation that is scattered in the rapid flow of social phenomena. Believe that life can be more sustainable than anything else when everyone is connected by embracing the diversity of life. In order to express the above form, it was produced in a connected form by tying a string.It was made into a knotted form.
Project Duration
The project started in Gongju city, Korea in March 2022, completed in December 2022.
Operation Flow
It is in the form of a ribbon tied together to show circulation. The material of the pipe gives the impression of a soft sofa. Each object is held together with cable ties, making it structurally sound.
