Hardened Mesh Project, Chair 2
Mesh is a sheet material that could be bent and manipulated in certain ways and
the shape stays fixed like working with wire.
It is as easy as working with paper, but also that much fragile. The shapes of the objects are designed to highlight these variable characteristics of mesh. Just as using fabric or paper, folding, technique of using patterns was a strong reference of designing the objects. Getting away from carefully constructed shapes, I wanted it to be more light, intuitive, and playful. Applying several layers of polyurethane rubber on this soft skeleton of an object, transforms it and gives functon. This process is rough but quick, nontoxic so it makes the objects safe and stable enough to drink right out of it and tough enough that it wouldn’t break while it’s used for the purpose its designed for. This project is a series of objects resulted from this synthesis of these unique material and process.
Dimensions: H80 x W50 x L60
Materials: hardened mesh, wire
