Mayelana ne-Equilibrio Usinki Oqoshiwe

I-Equilibrio iwusinki oqoshiwe ohlola umehluko phakathi kokuthambekela okuthambile kwe-countertop kanye nevolumu yayo eqinile. Yenziwe ngokuhlangana nokubunjwa kwezingcezu zamatshe amaningana ukuze kuzuzwe ifomethi eyindilinga, usinki wangempela udalwa yisigaba se-diagonal kanye nokutsheka okuncane kwengxenye engaphezulu yesiqephu. Izisekelo eziphakanyisiwe ziyi-asymmetrical, neshubhu elingenalutho elimboze amapayipi ohlangothini olulodwa nomlenze okhuni ngakolunye, kodwa lesi siqeshana singasetshenziswa ngaphandle kwezisekelo.

Ukuqashelwa

Mayelana ne-Umklomelo Wesiliva we-A' Design Award

Equilibrio Usinki Oqoshiwe iwinile uMklomelo Wesiliva we-A' Design Award, ukwaziswa okuhloniphekile ngokungajwayelekile okunikezwa imiklamo esezingeni eliphezulu, ebukekayo nethinta kakhulu. Abawinile beSiliva yimisebenzi egqamile kakhulu nedala kakhulu ebonisa ubungcweti obuphawulekayo, italente nobuhlakani babaklami babo. Equilibrio Usinki Oqoshiwe ilindeleke ukuba ibe ngumsebenzi omuhle wesibonelo, onobungcweti obuphawulekayo nezinto ezintsha ezijulile. Lo mklamo owinile uMklomelo Wesiliva we-A' Design Award uyinto entsha ebonakala kakhulu nethakazelisayo esiza futhi isunduza imingcele yobuciko, isayensi, ukuklama nobuchwepheshe. Equilibrio Usinki Oqoshiwe iyinto enomhawu omkhulu kuyo evusa izifiso, ilethe imizwa emihle futhi ivuse ukumangala nokuxakeka.

Ama-credit, amalungu eqembu nemininingwane yobuchwepheshe ehlinzekwe ngumklami.

Izici Ezihlukile: This sculptural stone sink relies on the contrast between the countertop's delicate inclination and its robust volume. The sink is created by a diagonal section and a slight tilt of the upper portion of the piece. The supports are asymmetrical, with a hollow tube covering the pluming on one side and a skinny leg on the other.
Izilinganiso Nokupakisha: 1500 mm x 600 mm x 250 mm
Amathegi: bathroom, sink, lavatory, basin, sculpture, artistic, stone, quartzite
Ubuchwepheshe Bokukhiqiza: As already specified above, this piece was assembled from several stone fragments in order to create the curves without the need of a solid block of rock. This was the main technical challenge. The design is actually quite straightforward and is based on a diagonal cut of the countertop, the remaining portion being slightly tilted to the right angle to prevent water from spilling when it collides with the surface.
Inselele Yokudweba: The hardest part of this activity was to reach simplicity and yet maintain ingenuity. Assuring the correct funcioning of the sink was also higly important, as it would be in display for one year and should have no problems operating.
Ucwaningo: This sculptural stone sink relies on the contrast between the countertop's delicate inclination and its robust volume. Design-wise there was a search for apparent simplicity: to cut a countertop diagonally and push it down so the water can flow. This tilt is of mere 1cm and in the right angle to prevent water from spilling. The assymetrical supports enhance the perception of contrasts. In one side a hollow tube covers the plumbing, in the other side a skinny metal leg almost defies gravity.
Ugqozi: This project's major objective was to explore contrasts. Since stone often has a very dense appearance, I investigated a design and technique to make it appear both weighty and delicate. The sink could have been cut from a single stone block or assembled from a number of small stone fragments. Due to financial considerations, the second option was preferred. A diagonal section and a slight tilt of the upper portion of the piece creates the actual basin.
Ubude Bephrojekthi: The project started in June 2022 ad finished in August 2022, and is currently being exhibited at Mostra Artefacto Balneario Camboriu, Brazil, from August 2022 until June 2023.
Ukuhamba Kokusebenza: This is a sculptural object, meant to be, at the same time, artistic and functional. It could be produced in different sizes and the main characteristics are the subtle elements designed in a very heavy-looking piece.
