Mayelana ne-Dihedral Isihlalo Sokuphumula

I-Dihedral yisihlalo sokuphumula esakhiwe ngezimo zejometri kanye nezingxenye ezilinganayo. Umklamo uhlanganisa izimo zesixhathunqa ezijwayelekile kanye nezishonile ukusekela isihlalo kanye nomsakazi wangemuva. Isixhathunqa sakhethwa ngoba lesi sishaphu sitholakala emvelweni futhi senza izakhiwo eziqinile, ezijwayelekile. Izitayela zesimanje zaphakathi nekhulu leminyaka zaba nomthelela ekubukekeni okuhlanzekile kwesihlalo. I-Dihedral yenziwe ngokhuni oluqinile lwe-rubberwood ngokuphetha kombala onsundu wewalnut futhi yembeswe isikhumba esingesona seso phezu kwesibopho se-foam. Isihlalo sokuphumula sihloselwe ukusetshenziswa ngaphakathi kuphela.

Ukuqashelwa

Mayelana ne-Umklomelo Wensimbi we-A' Design Award

Dihedral Isihlalo Sokuphumula iwinile uMklomelo Wensimbi we-A' Design Award, ukwaziswa okuhloniphekile okunikezwa imiklamo emihle ehlangabezana nezidingo zobungcweti nezemboni ezilindelekile ezimpahleni ezihlelwe kahle. Abawinile beNsimbi babonisa ikhono elikhulu, ubungcweti obuphezulu, ukuqonda kochwepheshe namandla okudala abadali babo. Dihedral Isihlalo Sokuphumula ilindeleke ukuba ibe yinto exatshwa kakhulu, edunyiswayo nethandwayo esebenzayo nenezinto ezintsha. Lo mklamo owinile uMklomelo Wensimbi we-A' Design Award uhlanganisa izindlela ezinhle kakhulu zemboni futhi unezimfanelo zobuchwepheshe ezifanelekile ezihlanganiswe nolwazi nethalente. Dihedral Isihlalo Sokuphumula iyahlonishwa ngenxa yokucophelela kwayo futhi ihlelelwe ukulethela izinguquko zomgangatho wempilo ezisiza ukwenza umhlaba ube yindawo engcono.

Izici Ezihlukile
The Dihedral chair is composed of striking geometric shapes with multiple symmetrical components that gives it a bold shape and sticks out to the human eye. Following form and function, the lounge chair simultaneously embraces it’s regular and irregular hexagonal design to support the seat and back rest.

Ubuchwepheshe Bokukhiqiza
The choice of materials were selected purposefully to create a high contrast that displays its unique design, while also considering its economic and sustainability impacts. The chair is constructed from solid rubberwood with walnut brown finish, and is upholstered in faux leather and padded with foam.
Inselele Yokudweba
Finding a solution to merge some of the regular and concave hexagonal shapes without compromising comfort and aesthetics was a sure feat in complexity. I had to explore the necessary cutting requirements for wood milling as there are a number of simple, yet complex geometries with merging the left, right, and back leg with the seat frame.
Ucwaningo
The initial goal of the Dihedral chair was to create a simplistic yet elegant design based off of the hexagon, which is one of nature's strongest shapes. The initial research was an iterative process that focused on symmetry, form, and pushing the essence of what makes a lounge chair. The process consisted of free sketches, real scale modeling, and 3D printing.
Ugqozi
The Dihedral chair is heavily influenced by mid-century modern styles to create an aesthetically clean look, while simultaneously merging geometric shapes to create a structural and practical design. The base shape of the Dihedral chair is inspired by hexagons, which can often be found in nature and can be used to build strong and regular structures.
Ubude Bephrojekthi
The project started in January 2023 in Houston, TX, USA and finished in February 2023.
Ukuhamba Kokusebenza
Due to the choice of materials the chair is designed for indoor use only and is not suitable for wet and humid conditions outside. The selected material is very moisture absorbent and direct contact with water should be avoided to extend its life cycle
