Mengenai Repose Kerusi Santai
Repose ialah kerusi santai yang diperbuat daripada kayu keras pejal. Rangka kerusi ini menggunakan kayu abu Amerika, manakala tempat duduk dan sandaran belakang menggunakan kayu walnut Amerika. Tempat duduk yang melengkung dalam ini dibentuk dengan melaminasi kepingan kayu terbentuk yang bertepi sudut, iaitu versi ekstrem daripada kaedah "coopering" yang digunakan untuk membina tong kayu. Bahagian lengkung dalam dikilang licin menggunakan alatan khas, manakala bahagian atas tangan kerusi mengekalkan tekstur bersegmen. Kaki belakang dibentuk melalui proses lenturan stim dan membantu menstabilkan bahagian tangan kerusi. Sambungan tenon jenis "draw bore" digunakan untuk menambah kekuatan struktur. Matlamat reka bentuk ini adalah untuk mencapai tahap keselesaan setanding kerusi berlapik hanya dengan menggunakan kayu pejal semata-mata.

- Ciri-Ciri Unik
- The Repose lounge chair is constructed from solid timber. The curved form is realized by an extreme form of the 'coopering' process - similar to the process used to construct round barrels from staves of timber.
- Dimensi & Pembungkusan
- W 800, D 800, H 830 mm
Constructed from solid hardwood timber. Frame: American Ash. Seat and Back: American Walnut.
Joints use draw bore tenon joints for extra strength - Tag

- Teknologi Pengeluaran
- This chair is not moulded, as some might expect, but is formed from solid timber. The deep sweeping form of the seat is made by laminating various pieces of timber, with angled edges, to form the desired curves. The inside curves are machined into smooth curves with custom made tooling; but the arm uppers retain some of the segmented feel - smooth enough and yet conveying a sense of where the piece came from. The rear legs are steam bent, to retain the overall simplicity, and to attenuate and stabilize the top part of the chair arms. The backrest is also a curved laminated, solid-wood form. It would also be possible to add a thin seat cushion, or perhaps to re-conceive the entire backrest as a custom moulded leather cushion
- Cabaran Reka Bentuk
- The major unknown was how strong the seat section would be in bending - in other words if someone sat on the arms, would they break? It became apparent that the arms would need additional support given the depth of the form, and the inevitable flexibility (despite steps taken to add strength in the manufacturing process). It was found that the support pins at the rear of the arms were sufficient to stabilize the entire form - which was confirmed through trial and error.
Overall the challenge was to create a lounge chair that, despite being solid timber, would be as comfortable as an upholstered equivalent - Penyelidikan
- The method drew heavily on the methods used in earlier designs (eg Zene submitted last year), but took these to extremes to experiment with the art of the possible.
New tooling was developed, in the form of a type of drum sander run between centres on a woodworking lathe, to machine the large concave curves - Inspirasi
- The inspirational question behind Repose was: if the design language at the core of the Beke and Zene dining ranges were extended to lounge furniture, what would that look like? Could a form be created out of beautiful solid hardwood timber that was profoundly comfortable even though it may be challenging to manufacture? Could some sort of modern shell design be crafted out of solid timber to yield a beautiful striking new design ?
- Tempoh Projek
- The project was designed and the first prototype built in 4 weeks, starting Dec 2018 and completing in Jan 2019 in Johannesburg South Africa. The design was refined and built in finished materials (Ash and Walnut) over the following 4 weeks.
- Aliran Operasi
- The user settles comfortably down into the seat using the armrests.
Various postures are supported sitting comfortably down in the seat.
Getting back out of the seat is very easy, and facilitated by the arms. - Paten
