De-Splendour

Subject: Studio 1 - Assignment 2
Semester: 3
Title: Furniture Design

The inspiration for this model began with the structure of Ipomoea which is the Morning Glory plant. According to this plant, it doesn’t have any straight line or sharp edge but smooth and soft string twisting freely. It gives a natural curve and bond which reflect the power of nature as well. Wrought iron has being used as the frame and timber as the bass to support a human according to our body lines. The timber gives life to the wrought iron frame as it represents the body of the furniture. Cengal Batu has been chosen because it doesn’t absorb heat and it is much stronger compare to others. The wrought iron frame gives a springy feeling just like you are floating in the air while resting on it. It is being designed for one as it gives a very private space for resting.
De- Splendour is special designed for outdoors. The best location for it should be somewhere which is more silent and peaceful, for example in the lush tropical garden. You are lying on it, with all the trees surrounding you early in the morning, the wind touched you gently while the sunrise shines on u... at that moment try to take a deep breath and smell the environment... And that the best to describe rest and relax!
