Spun来自对熟悉对象类型的几何简化的研究。一个完全旋转对称的形式可以制作舒适的椅子吗?

Spun came out of research into the geometric simplification of a familiar object type. Could a completely rotationally symmetrical form make a comfortable chair?

通过全尺寸测试件开发,符合人体工程学,座椅,靠背和手臂都是相同的轮廓。结果并不像椅子那样明显,而且直立看起来更像雕塑。然而,当它侧面着地时,它形成一个舒适且功能齐全的椅子,保姆可以从一侧到另一侧摇摆,甚至可以完整地旋转。

Developed through full size test pieces an ergonomic was established where seat, back and arms were all the same profile. The result is not immediately apparent as a chair and when upright looks more like a sculptural vessel. However, when lent on its side it forms a comfortable and functional chair that the sitter can rock from side to side in, or even spin round in a complete circle.

该工作室使用大规模金属纺纱工艺制作了一系列作品,传统上用于制作定音鼓等物品。通过使用桨叶将金属片压在旋转的铸铁形式上来手工制作椅子。每把椅子由六个金属旋压组装而成,焊接在一起并经过抛光处理,形成一个统一的形状,皮革饰边镶嵌在承重边缘。

The studio produced a series of pieces using the craft of large scale metal spinning, traditionally used to make objects such as Timpani drums. The chairs are handmade by pressing sheets of metal against a rotating cast iron form using a paddle. Each chair is assembled from six metal spinnings, welded together and polished to produce a single unified form with a leather trim inlaid into the weight bearing rim.
