furniture We designed and created a modular shelf and a side table that can also function as a stool, both using conduit pipes. The modular shelf was designed to incorporate conduit pipes as a key element of the furniture, combining them with aluminum profiles to create a product that is eco-friendly, durable, and expandable. The joint blocks and brackets connecting the conduit pipes and profiles were developed using in-house design technology, allowing for easy assembly and potential expansion.
The side table features a large conduit pipe as its base, with a removable top. It also offers storage space and can occasionally be used as a stool when a cushion is placed on top.
The illustration portrays the harmony and coexistence of people, nature, and the universe in everyday life, expressed in a witty and surreal way. The two selves within me, filled with countless concerns (represented as dots), are observed by another set of eyes (representing nature) from the outside. Like distant points in the universe, all these concerns are ultimately insignificant, mere dots.
These dots, in another sense, transform into seeds scattered by a butterfly, which then grow into flowers. Birds then soar over the fields, and people become beings of limitless freedom as if carried by the wind.
Ultimately, we live as small parts of nature, breathing within it. The eco-friendly materials used in the products, both in essence and meaning, align with the idea of humans and nature coexisting in harmony.
The resulting furniture, such as the illustrated stools, naturally integrates art into everyday life through product design, enriching our lives. The thoughtful, long-term use of such items, which reflect personal taste, will have a positive impact on the environment in a larger sense. I believe this is the core concept behind the products.
