“刀锋”桌椅 | 柔和与硬朗的完美平衡

由圆形截面的木材制作的家具能很好地柔化空间，但复杂的连接节点会使家具看起来过于繁琐，无法适配平面和直线构成的硬朗型空间环境。与之相对的，由方形截面的木材制作的家具，虽然可以保证连接处的平整，从而与硬朗空间相匹配，但却往往存在着造型过于呆板尖锐的缺陷。”blade”系列桌椅的出发点，即希望能在上述两点中找到适当的平衡。

Wooden furniture made of round section pieces adds softness to the space, but the complicated connecting joints make visual noise, often not matching sharp looking environments constructed by flat surfaces and straight lines. On the other hand, wooden furniture made of square section pieces bears the risk of exuding its hardness and sharpness in addition to looking too heavy, although the connecting joints can be straightened neatly to attain higher compatibility with sharp environments. The aim was to design a stacking chair that takes advantage of both characteristics.

▼家具概览，overview

座椅的框架采用圆形截面的构件，靠背和椅面由胶合板用模具压制而成。椅腿和靠背的边缘被刨平成线状，使得椅子的部分平面成带有脊线方形。这样的组合在柔和与硬挺间达到了平衡，每个连接点都尽可能保证简洁。

First, the frame was constructed with round section members. Then, the back and seat made of molded plywood were attached, and the edges of the legs and backrest were planed off linearly, resulting in a chair with partially squared off surfaces and ridgelines. The coexistence resulted in creating a balance between softness and tension, while the joints of each element remain simple.

“刀锋”系列中还包括桌子和高脚凳。因该系列产品的一侧造型被处理的较为锋利，靠背轮廓类似t型剃刀，所以被命名为“刀锋”（blade）。

A table and a high stool are also available, and the collection was named “blade” from the state of only one side being sharply shaved off, as well as the silhouette of the backrest somewhat similar to a T-shaped razor.
