關於 Forma 椅子

Forma係一張運用植鞣皮革、密度板（MDF）同鋼材塑形而成嘅椅子。其造型重新演繹咗馬鞍嘅輪廓線條。皮革部分採用濕塑法（wet molding）成形，呢係一種歷史悠久嘅皮革工藝技術，可以塑造出結構分明而耐用嘅形態。濕塑法令柔軟同硬挺部位之間嘅過渡更加順滑，令呢張椅子既舒適又具支撐力。Forma嘅尺寸為闊560毫米、深605毫米、高670毫米。呢個設計將傳統馬具工藝轉化應用於當代家具之中。

生產技術: Since early civilization, leather has been valued for its versatility, offering both comfort and protection. Wet molding, one of the oldest leatherworking techniques, remains a vital method for shaping leather into structured, durable forms. Forma employs this technique to fuse soft and rigid elements with fluidity, achieving structural refinement. By leveraging this process, the design not only preserves traditional craftsmanship but also explores new possibilities in material adaptation and contemporary fabrication techniques.
設計挑戰: Wet molding is a centuries-old technique, yet its potential within contemporary design remains largely underexplored. This project challenges conventional applications by experimenting with new shaping methods, testing leather’s adaptability, and refining its structural possibilities. Through material-driven research, it seeks to expand the boundaries of craftsmanship, integrating traditional leatherworking techniques with adaptive design solutions.
研究: This project investigates the potential of wet molding through hands-on experimentation, analyzing the material’s flexibility and structural limitations. By studying how leather responds to manipulation, the research informs the development of innovative forms and explores new possibilities in furniture applications. Pushing the boundaries of this traditional craft, the study bridges material experimentation with material-driven design, redefining leather’s role in modern fabrication.
靈感: Forma is rooted in a deep appreciation for the transformation of raw materials through time-honored craftsmanship. Inspired by the evolution of saddlery, the project reinterprets traditional processes for new creative applications by examining how wet molding—a technique integral to equestrian gear—can be adapted for contemporary design. The interplay of structure and fluidity found in saddlery serves as the foundation for a piece that honors heritage craftsmanship while embracing design refinement.
項目時長: The project started in January 2023 in Providence, Rhode Island, and was completed in May 2023.
操作流程: Designed to offer both function and sculptural presence, Forma’s structured yet fluid form allows it to serve as a seat while also acting as a statement piece. The careful balance of soft and rigid elements provides both comfort and support, making it a versatile addition to various interior spaces.
