Plicatura secundam superficiem creat, quae pro mensa adhiberi potest, sine additis extensionibus vel appendicibus. Forma simplex et firma manet ad usum in locis publicis aptum. Tabula contraplicata vapore tractatur et in forma ad hoc opus proprie facta figuratur, aere Corinthio (aere fusili) cum ea adhibito.

Post Designum

Fasciculus Nuntii

Merita, sodales gregis et singula technica a designatore praebita.

Proprietates Singulares: What if a bench is also a table?
Fold is an interpretation to the question above, to fulfil multiple functions yet retain a simplistic and sturdy form to be used in the public. This piece of furniture is not much more than a piece of plywood folded back on itself at an angle. Yet, this simple manipulation creates another surface that can be used as a table, without sacrificing its unanimous form with extensions or appendages.
Dimensiones et Involucrum: Overall dimensions: 1480(L) x 1010(W) x 730(H)mm
Notulae: plywood, bending, bench, curvature
Technologia Productionis: Plywood and Bronze
Steam the plywood and put into a custom build mold for bending
Provocatio Designandi: The most difficult part is bending the plywood in a specific angle which is also comfortable for the purpose of sitting with a table. and the placement of the legs are the second challenge to maintain the sturdiness while to balance with the proportions and ratio with the plywood.
Inspiratio: Public bench design always strives for functionality but neglected the aesthetics, and also mostly only caters for the purpose of sitting. What if you are holding a coffee or you are looking for a place to sit down with your book or laptop? You don’t have a choice but to go to the café or restaurants. It’s time to think out of the box and create a piece of furniture that aesthetically addresses the convenience and flexibility of how a public bench can do for the people.
Duratio Operis: The project staretd in early 2019 and completed in production in late 2019.
Cursus Operationis: Feel free to explore your uses and gestures with this table+bench.
