About Fragments Ifulegi

Kuhlanganiswa amafulethi amathathu wejometri angajwayelekile, lo mndeni uqhekekile unesakhiwo sawo sokuklama esiyingqayizivele. Iflashidi ngayinye yakhelwe njengesiqeshana, lapho kufakwa amapulangwe amathathu, akha ibhlokhi lobuciko kanye nesazi. Umqambi ugcizelele ubuciko bemisebenzi yobuciko ngokuqedwa kwesibuko esidonswayo engaphandle, futhi usebenzisa ibanga lensimbi le-18/10. Ubuhlakani bomklamo bukwenza kuhlanganiswe ukubukisa futhi iqoqo lezidingo zokuhamba.

Unique Properties: The fragment flask family is a modern and elegant design of three flasks. It is made from stainless steel 18/10. This type of steel is particularly resistant to acid and corrosion. This set includes 3 flasks, each is designed as a fragment with unconventional shape, and three flasks can be put together as an art block and sculpture. Every piece of the set is polished with a crisp, mirror finish on the exterior. They’ll reflect the beauty all around them just like a mirror.
This flask set is not just simply the containers, but also the art in our daily lives.
Dimensions & Packaging: Flask-L: L97.5 x W35 x H117mm (8oz)
Flask-M: L95 x W40 x H93mm (6oz)
Flask-S: L78 x W33.5 x H78mm (3oz)

Production Technology: The material used is Stainless Steel 18/10 which is the high grade of stainless steel, and that is super rust-resistant. With the metalworking techniques of laser cutting and laser welding, the polygonal shape of flasks was made.
Design Challenge: The creativity is totally beyond the production possibilities. Abnormal and polygonal design of flasks requires special metalworking techniques that the defective rate is high.
Research: Materials and exploring various metalworking production techniques were crucial to the success of the production of this project.
Inspiration: Fragment is the idea of flask design. Life is the fragments of joy & sorrow, we go through all special moments with drinks, no matter alone on a journey or with friends at the party. So each flask is designed as the form of different fragments and three flasks can be well-fitly put together, like each individual of us can share their moments with friends or families together and give each other a hug. The outer mirror-polishing give the idea as fragments of mirror and memories of life. This design is to bring art & inspiration to daily life with little simple objects which are changed to be unconventional.
Project Duration: The project started in September 2019 in Hong Kong and finished in December in China, and was exhibited in Ambiente Frankfurt (Germany) & Tokyo International Gift Show (Japan) in February 2020.
