About Arc 家具系列

Arc係一個家具系列,由一張躺椅、一張腳凳、一張書枱、一盞座地燈同一個展示架組成。設計靈感嚟自中國山西省太行山嘅曲線輪廓,呢啲線條被提煉成每件家具嘅支撐框架。框架採用白色鋼材製造,再包上手縫皮革。清晰嘅玻璃面板加入其中,同皮革同鋼材形成對比。支撐結構經過力學分析,決定咗角度同尺寸。最終呈現出輕盈而現代嘅外觀。

Production Technology: The processing technology mainly adopts white steel casting and manual leather sewing technology. The organic white steel frame is combined with hand-sewn leather, which makes the straight line and curve form a distinct rhythm, and the whole shape is rigid and soft. The use of clear hard glass panels breaks the dullness of leather and white steel. The mixed use of different texture and characteristic materials will make this series of furniture more exploratory.
Design Challenge: The biggest challenge is to keep the core frame of furniture stable, refine and beautify the frame form as much as possible, and save the frame material. On this basis, combined with other materials to achieve the functional and decorative furniture. And through the mixed use of different texture and characteristic materials, this series of furniture can be added more exploratory.
Research: In the process of design, the core support structure of each furniture is focused on. After the mechanical analysis and research of the support structure, the line of the mountain range of Taihang Mountain is refined and the basic frame of the series furniture is refined and beautified. Using high quality white steel to form the basic frame of each furniture, the leather package is used on this basis, which makes the powerful frame line combine with the leather with good fit. It has stability and comfort.
Inspiration: This series of furniture design is inspired by the shape arc of the Taihang Mountains in Shanxi Province, China. Through the extraction of the local lines of Taihang Mountain, combined with the supporting structure of each furniture monomer, it evolved into a powerful and hard furniture shape.
Project Duration: The project started in January 2020 in Shenyang and completed in June 2020 in Shenyang, and was exhibited in the museum of Lu Xun Academy of Fine Arts in Shenyang in June 2020.
Operation Flow: The radians of the recliner are ergonomics, the back of the chair is encircled, the desk and display frame are supported on one side, and the force angle and specific size are calculated scientifically.
