About Lotus Leaf 边几

"荷叶"是一款为宁静、含蓄的生活空间而设计的边几。其造型灵感源自荷叶与折纸艺术。此桌由两个完全相同的部件组成,可组合使用,亦可分开单独使用。以简洁的直线与纯粹的几何形态取代繁复的装饰细节。设计将亚克力与实木相结合,桌面以一体成型的方式呈现。通透的材质赋予桌子轻盈而现代的气质。产品尺寸为485 × 500 × 420毫米。平板式可拆卸包装有效减少了运输体积。

Unique Properties: Light luxury, a low-key yet quality lifestyle, is becoming more and more popular among young people. This end table with a light luxury style is in line with this trend.
Dimensions & Packaging: 485mm x 500mm x420mm, using flat-panel detachable packaging to reduce transportation volume.
Tags: Light luxury, geometry, multipurpose, End Table, Lotus leaf
Production Technology: It combines acrylic and solid wood creatively in this table, with an integrally formed table top.
Design Challenge: The application and production process of transparent materials is the biggest problem in the implementation of this design scheme.
Research: In the Internet age, brand positioning on emotion, personality, and IP is more effective than advertising, and the trend of personalization of brand consumption is becoming more and more obvious. Consumers prefer fashionable, cutting-edge, and individual design styles, and pay more attention to the expression and display of local culture and attitudes to life. This product is to create a personal economy from the perspective of personality traits, give oneself a low-key and elegant attitude towards life, and satisfy young people's illusions about ideal life.
Inspiration: Inspired by the art of origami, the Lotus End Table is designed with two identical parts, which can be used together or separately. Removing unnecessary frills, this table with straight lines and simple geometric shapes will surely be favored by minimalists. Combining acrylic and solid wood, it not only retains the closeness between furniture and people, but integrates chic elements to bring a modern touch.
Project Duration: The project started in Turin in June 2021, completed in zheng zhou in July 2021.
Operation Flow: This is a transparent side table. The design is inspired by lotus leaves. Through the refinement and optimization of its shape, the side table becomes more vivid and interesting, giving users a natural feeling.
