Malunga ne-Airy Idesika Yeofisi

I-Airy worktable yenziwe njengeprototype yovavanyo ekuphenduleni indawo yesitudiyo iya itshintshana ngokwandayo, apho i-ankile yokuchongwa yebala loyilo iyitable yomntu. Ukoyisa indida phakathi kokuntsokotha okuntsokothileyo kwefenitshala ebekiweyo kunye nendibano ekhawulezayo kakhulu kunye nenkqubo yokuqhawula, iAiry iqhelana nemikhwa yomntu ukusuka kwindawo ukuya kwenye. Lo mzekelo uyilwe ngononophelo uyashukuma, uyasebenza, uguquguquka kwaye ngumhlobo we-bespoke kwiindawo zethu zokusebenza. Inika: ukuhamba okukhanyayo, ukusebenza ngokusesikweni kunye nokuguquguquka kwe-oblique.

Iziqinisekiso, amalungu eqela kunye neenkcukacha zobugcisa ezinikezelwe ngumyili.

Iimpawu Ezizodwa: Airy is designer’s mobile worktable where studio is a space of a desk, be it inside or outside. Curved table-top surrounds the body. Airiness of design offers lightness and a thorough view of any background. Its four unique sides make it uniquely adaptable to any place. Carefully crafted, sturdy and light, it straddles the paradox between complexity of a bespoke furniture and extremely fast assembly and disassembly process.
Imilinganiselo nePakishini: Due to its curved form and when fully assembled AIRY length and width dimensions vary depending how they are taken. Length is from 2200 to 2400 mm, width is from 600mm to 1000mm. The height of the tabletop is constant until it curves on one side and is 740mm. The packaging of the table would be packaging of its parts with instructions for home assembly.
Iithegi: Airy, Work Table, Bespoke, Adaptable, Mobile, Unique, Oblique, Functional
Ubuchwepheshe Bokuvelisa: Airy work table’s production and materiality combine traditionally modernist techniques of making with digitally drawn precision of each element of the construction to provide 1:1 final production drawings while utilizing slow techniques to achieve a fast assembly process. Specially built two part presses were used to form curved panels. Glued, cross-grained ash veneers are laid between the two parts that are held together under pressure in the press. Metal support and legs were made from hollow bars resting on hollow studs. Side metalwork was laser cut and welded with great precision and finished in powder coating.
Umngeni Woyilo: Designed in the UK and made in Serbia the biggest challenge was making the large press for tabletop due to unavailability of large machine vacuum presses. The press was made from numerous layers of chipboard sheets cut to shape fastened by specially designed metal bars and layered with metal sheets. Another challenge was choice and thickness of veneered material in which oak veneer proved to be too porous and the first tabletop attempt was discarded. Final option worked extremely well with ash veneer.
Uphando: Design Research aim was to create a unique prototype for currently changing work space. Its objective was to make a bespoke design combined with a fast assembly and disassembly process. The method used was based on design and detailed drawings (1:1), high quality craft and numerous tests and experimentation on how to achieve such an outcome. While the prototype displays one option there is an opportunity to change such options without changing the nature of design.
Inkuthazo: As studio space becomes spatially and virtually interchangeable the identification anchor for design place becomes its own worktable. AIRY is such an identifier, like a favourite travel bag, it adapts to individual habits from one place to another. A beautiful traveller, this carefully crafted prototype is mobile, functional, adaptable and bespoke friend in our workspace. It offers: Light Mobility, Formal Functionality and Oblique Adaptability.
Ubude Beprojekthi: The project started in 2019 in London and was completed in 2021 in Serbia. The project is located at present in Serbia and it has not been yet exhibited publicly.
Ukuhamba Komsebenzi: Formal Functionality is present in airy-gap transitions between its parts for easy assemble and disassemble process. Oblique Adaptability is achieved by its design construction and materiality. Oblique Adaptability of the table makes its every elevation unique. Celebrating mobility, Airy anchors its place in each new environment. Bespoke design of table elements turns utility into designed seduction.
