Oer Sakura Cyclone Tafel

Dit is in lege tafel makke fan foarme karsefinier, dy't normaal útsjen docht as in grutte karseboom dy't op 'e ierde groeit. Oan 'e oare kant, as it ljocht oanset wurdt, bloeit de karsebloesem yn in skaad en makket de romte strielend. It is in tafel dy't in jûn ta in bysûnder momint makket. De karsebloesem is in wichtich symboal yn Japan. Mar karsebloesems bloeiemje mar ûngefear ien wike fan it jier. Dizze tafel is ûntworpen mei de fergonklike pracht fan 'e karseboom.

Unike Eigenskippen
This design proposal is a low table made of molded cherry plywood. The unique point of this table is the design of the shadow that falls from the table. This table usually looks like a large cherry tree growing on the earth. On the other hand, when turning on the light, the cherry blossom blooms in a shadow and makes the space brilliant. It is a table that turns an evening into a special time.
Ofmjittingen & Ferpakking
The furniture was made in a workshop in the Hida region in Japan, a famous furniture production area in Japan. The size of this table is H400 mm*D400 mm, W400mm.
Labels
Table, Cherry blossom, Sakura, shadow
Produksjetechnology
The furniture is made of Molded plywood. Detailed mating is the key to designing accurate shadows. I created a mechanism to adjust the angle of the plywood installation with wires, allowing fine adjustment of the falling shadows.
Untwerpútdaging
It was difficult to consider the configuration of parts to realize that only when the pendant light is turned on at night a shadow falls and cherry blossoms bloom. I created several scale models and conducted many experiments to check the shadows by turning on the lights. Then, I realized this idea using the construction method of diagonally mating R500mm curved wood.
Undersyk
I explored the essential elements of Japaneseness in order to create a table that is uniquely Japanese. In the process, I came across the famous book “In Praise of Shadows” by the famous Japanese classic writer, Junichiro Tanizaki. Through this book, Tanizaki showed that since ancient times, Japanese people have been conscious of the shadows behind light and have found a sense of beauty in these shadows. Therefore, we designed this table based on the hypothesis that we could create essentially Japanese furniture by designing the shadows that fall from the table, which modern people are usually unaware of.
Ynspiraasje
This table is a conceptual design in my lab. I tried to incorporate Japanese essential aesthetics into a Western furniture table.
Cherry blossom is an important symbol in Japan. But cherry blossoms bloom for only about one week of the year. Japanese people are fascinated by the momentary brilliance of cherry blossoms. I designed it with the fleeting brilliance of the Cherry blossom tree.
Projektdoer
The project started in 2022 in Nagoya Japan and finished at the end of 2023.
Operaasjestreamferrin
During the day, users relax with a cup of tea or a book at the table, where they can feel the warmth of the wood. At night, they can spend a special time drinking a glass of wine on the table, which becomes as brilliant as a cherry tree in full bloom thanks to the shadows cast by the room light. We envision that this table will also used in restaurants or pubs.
