O dizajnu Zene Blagovaonska stolica

Blagovaonska stolica Zene inspiraciju pronalazi u autohtonom drvu i danskom modernom dizajnu. Lagani okviri od jasena jednostavni su i robusni te podupiru sjedala i naslone od tvrdog drva koji naizgled lebde na okviru. Zakrivljeni oblici sjedala i naslona nisu izrađeni savijanjem drva, već spajanjem i oblikovanjem masivnog tvrdog drva. Kao serija, lagani okviri od jasena pružaju povezanost, dok različiti lokalni materijali odabrani za sjedala i naslone stvaraju zanimljivost i relevantnost.

Jedinstvena svojstva
This series of dining chairs have American ash frames and showcase different hardwood timbers for the seat/backrest combinations.

The chairs draw on the ancient art of 'coopering' or how oak barrels are made for fermentation purposes. The curved forms of the seat/backrest are not formed by bending but rather by joining and shaping solid hardwood timber.

The chair strives to be very strong and beautiful. In short: Zene -
elegant, comfortable and dependable.

Proizvodna tehnologija
The Zene design evolved over a number of years. The starting point was probably a fascination with the art of coopering and how this has been applied to furniture design. Building the segmented seat and backrests took some practice to perfect, as did the development of custom modifications to standard workshop tools to shape and finish the smoothly shaped forms.
Dizajnerski izazov
Building the coopered seat/backrests was challenging as it required careful attention to the compression forces on the material and how best to achieve high compression without causing the seats to 'implode'.
Shaping the rough seats into finely finished and smooth curves required considerable re-working of the custom tooling to achieve the desired results
Istraživanje
Danish modern designs were studied and absorbed to consider different ways of rendering the frame, and its relationship to the seat, and to think through the spatial relationship of the seat to the backrest.
Web search was used to think about typical dimensions for the seat but in the end prototyping proved most fun.
Inspiracija
The beauty grain and colour of indigenous African timber was a key aesthetic inspiration for this project. The more technical inspiration for the overall work, including the frame design came from iconic designers such as Hans J Wegner (for example the CH20 Elbow Chair). The coopering technique was inspired by Ontario furniture designer Adrian Ferrazzutti.
Trajanje projekta
The first prototype was conceived in Johannesburg in 2007. It was slowly refined as background task over 10 years, and the first set of 6 chairs was produced in 2017
Tijek rada
Zene is designed mainly for use at the dining table and is designed for extended dining comfort.
