About Ravaq 桌子

Ravaq的目标是将那些用镜子覆盖的莫卡纳斯吊顶以较小的比例进行更新。这些形式植根于一千多年的传统中，它们的现代重建将古代与现代联系在一起。 Ravaq从不同角度反射周围的颜色，以使其更美观。 ravaq的主要挑战是从传统的图案和图案中创造出新颖而新颖的形式，这样一旦您面对整个图案，它的真实性就会带您回到过去，同时仍可以在现代家具中使用。

These forms are rooted in a 1000 year tradition and their modern reconstruction ties the ancient with the contemporary. Ravaq reflects the surrounding colors from different angles to match the place that it goes to more beautifully.

Production Technology: The main idea in producing ravaq was a high quality and perfect production, so we have used CNC cutting a stainless steel and glass sheets to minimize human error. The main materials its production are stainless steel and color glasses.
Design Challenge: The main challenge of this project was to create new and innovative forms from a traditional pattern and motif so that once you are faced by the whole pattern, its authenticity takes you back in time while you are still use that with modern furniture.
Research: Research on this project began by focusing on Persian architectural, geometrical patterns. Our aim was to use this two dimensional geometry and pattern to create three dimensional masses. Our main aesthetics priority was not to get trapped in repeating old fashioned forms and to create postmodern forms with new material.
Inspiration: Moqarnas is one of the mast important elements of Persian architecture. First it was used as columns’ to buttress domes and mosques ceilings. Then however, it became mainly a decorative element of the building these ceilings are usually covered with mosaic-style mirrors in order to maximize light reflection at any angle.
Project Duration: I have been researching on Iranian-Islamic geometric designs and patterns in the last year and have been trying to design some furniture
which is inspired by ancient Iranian architectural motifs. This and some other projects that I have done are the results of this endeavour. This project has been mass produced in Iran last December.
Operation Flow: Ravaq is a special side table which evokes a beautiful volume of architectural in the performance environment. The main mass of the stainless steel is a mirror that interacts with the space itself.
