關於 Kawadoko 長凳

Kawadoko係一張為咗喺夏日消暑而設計嘅木凳。呢個名源自日本夏天喺河流上搭建嘅平台,人哋喺度可以喺流水旁邊乘涼。呢張長凳以白橡木製成,採用榫卯結構同車木工藝,並依循傳統木構建築嘅結構特色。座面木條之間留有長長嘅間隙,方便空氣流通,帶嚟清涼嘅坐感。座面比一般長凳更闊,用家可以盤腿而坐,亦可以躺低休息。木條圓潤嘅邊緣喺搬動長凳時仲可以充當手柄嚟用。

新聞資料包

由設計師提供嘅製作人員名單、團隊成員同技術詳情。

獨特屬性: Inspired by the memories of kawadoko, this bench is specially designed for escaping from the summer heat. The long gaps between the seat create a cool and well-ventilated sitting experience, and the rods that make up the seat are cut into flat surfaces to ensure comfort, while the edges remain circular, similar to the shape of bamboo, and serve as handles when moving the chair.
尺寸同包裝: Width 430mm x Depth 1520mm x Height 460mm
標籤: bench, summer, nature, furniture
生產技術: Production: tenon and mortise techniques, woodturning
Material: white oak
設計挑戰: The biggest challenge is the making of the 1.5 meters-long wooden rods, which requires customized jigs to stabilize during the making process. And the burnt marks on the curved surface, after several attempts,have been successfully erased using certain techniques.
研究: The project has explored the wooden structure of traditional Japanese architecture, and transformed it into the constructive concept of the design. Another research is about the relevance between furniture and human body scale,and how our body reacts in different circumstances, as these are the factors that refined the prototype in the process.
靈感: Kawadoko, which mean river floors, are patios built over the river by restaurants in Kibune during the summer. While kawadoko are temporary, they are quite sturdy-built with wood and bamboo.
In Kibune, people are only a few feet above the river as they can enjoy the sound of water, the breeze, and the mist.
Thinking Kawadoko as a pleasant escape from the summer heat, the design aims to evoke memories of kawadoko, bringing a sense of coolness into daily life.
項目時長: The project started in August, 2020 and finished in January, 2021, Taiwan.
操作流程: The scale and dimension of this project has been carefully arranged to achieve a friendly user experience. The width of the bench is wider than the average, so that user can easily sit cross-legged or even lie down to rest. The height of the shelf is in exact position where the hands are naturally dropping,which means anything on the shelf are within reach.the round rods serve as handles when moving the bench. In addition, a foldable cushion can be used during winter to ensure comfort.
