關於 Siin Beirut 手鐲

Siin Beirut 是一款由 5 個字母組成的金色手鍊，以庫法阿拉伯文字為基礎，形成“Beirut”一詞，綠松石上帶有變音點。飾物是一個模塊化單元，其字符為 2.5x5.5 單元；這種結構允許阿拉伯字符的上升部分和下降部分的大小一致。雖然這些字符通常是相連的，但這些孤立的字符可以移動以形成新單詞。腳本中的尖拱門是激光雕刻在頂部的，以反映貝魯特傳統建築中的拱門。

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: The charms are the center of my bracelet's uniqueness. They are a combination of Arabic characters and arches as a local and cultural architectural element.
This bracelet has 5 letters of the alphabet forming the word Beirut which the bracelet is named after. One can mix and match between letters to create different words.
尺寸同包裝: The letters are based on the Square Kufic calligraphy of the 12th century. This calligraphy is distinguished by its straight lines, right angles, and equal spacing between lines and spaces to conform to a regular grid. This grid follows a system of units. Each charm on the bracelet has a width of 2.5 units and a height equivalent of 5.5 units. The diacritic dot is equivalent to 1 unit of a turquoise stone. The arches are laser-engraved on top.
標籤: Siin, Beirut, Jewelry, Typography, Charms, Typeface design, Arabic typeface, bracelet design
生產技術: Materials used are yellow gold metal and blue turquoise stones.
設計挑戰: The major challenge I faced was trying to fit all the charms (Arabic alphabet) of the word Beirut into the same grid. Knowing that the Arabic alphabet has many ascenders and descenders within its characters, it required precise measurements and calculations to have all charms fit into the same height (5.5 units).
研究: After the devastating explosion that occurred in Beirut Port on August 4, 2020, much of the city of Beirut was severely damaged. Many historical features were destroyed; this is why the research concentrated on the historical and cultural background of the city in order to revive and hold it dear through charm designs to commemorate a precious and heartfelt memory. Since most of the old traditional houses in the city stood out from other contemporary architecture, the pointed arches, a particular feature, were thus adapted as the design element complemented by an Arabic alphabet.
靈感: SiiN is a concept of a jewelry brand that combines typography with cultural design elements. It aims to treasure the beauty of locations across the world through artistic representations, thus it encompasses several collections that represent different cities. The bracelet is a piece from the Beirut collection. Through the charms, the aim is to preserve the written language and the cultural aspect of Beirut city, to be SiiN (seen) by the whole world.
項目時長: The project is an Academic project that has started in September 2020 and finished in April 2021 in Beirut, Lebanon.
操作流程: Each charm creates an emotional link to the person wearing it as it resonates with a memory of certain places visited and their written language. It can also embody a personalized experience as one can form a word or simply choose letters. The Beirut collection specifically was designed as a tribute to the city of Beirut after the devastating explosion on August 4, 2020. To me, there was a direct emotional link to my city, exemplified by the expression “wearing your heart on your sleeve”.
