DESIGN DETAILS |
DESIGN NAME: Era
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Stool
INSPIRATION: The main idea of the quadruped is derived from nature. The circular rotation around a axis makes it look like a tornado. Regular repetition of lines at the base of stool has made it a modern sculpture
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The goal of this project was to make a unique stool that in itself can be a convincing and prominent element for the user and the room.
The reflection of light and its effect between the lines of its metal bases creates a sense of movement and continuity for the audience.
OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: It is part of a new living style that, due to its special shape, can create a unique landscape as a unit or even in combination with other components of the interior.
PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: This project started in April of 2018 in Tehran, Iran.
FITS BEST INTO CATEGORY: Furniture Design
|
PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: The rods are fixed at the top and bottom poles, each by a metal ring, each of which has a calculated angle hole. The stool is covered with a foam and a leather cover, and a plywood plate is embedded in the seat to prevent the foam from deforming.
SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES: 500 High 450 Wide 450 Depth
TAGS: furniture, stool, brass, arsalan ghadimi, ghafdesign, leather, iran
RESEARCH ABSTRACT: Until the final form of Era was realized, diverse prototypes has been constructed to get the best possible look. All the angles, number and diameter of poles, the final colors, the exact shape of the ring was researched in many ways. We have also made numerous experiments with the SLS technology, to reach the desired quality and perfect assembly tolerances for the manufacturing of the product.
CHALLENGE: The clearness of the design was one of the main intentions during the whole development period. That meant that no visible fastening elements were allowed. These objectives together required the invention of an ingenious, yet simple solution to completely hide the fastening elements for the poles. Probably this was the hardest part of the development.

I'm absolutely delighted and inspired by the work of Arsalan Ghadimi and Saiedeh Jaafari! Their award-winning work, "Era" is a beautiful example of modern design and innovation. I'm particularly impressed by the attention paid to details and the research that went into it. The reflection of light and its effect between the lines of its metal bases creates a sense of movement and continuity that is simply mesmerizing. I can see how the main idea of the quadruped was derived from nature, and how the circular rotation around a axis makes it look like a tornado. I'm also impressed by the numerous experiments with the SLS technology to reach the desired quality and perfect assembly tolerances for the manufacturing of the product. Arsalan Ghadimi and Saiedeh Jaafari are a true design success story and I'm so glad to see their work being recognized with the A' Design Award!
