Monolithic Folded Metal Panel: Three Bends Form a Single Table

The reception desk is formed from a single 6mm thick steel plate, bent three times: rising from the ground, turning horizontally to form the countertop, and then folding down to create the front panel, so it appears as a Z-shape in profile, with only two points touching the ground. The steel plate surface is dark gray powder-coated, matte, with a consistent bending radius of 30mm at all folds. Being a thin plate, the volume looks light, and the true thickness of the plate is visible from the side. The front panel does not reach the ground, stopping 200mm above it, allowing visibility underneath. On the countertop, there is only a laptop and a slender desk lamp. The overall design has no decoration or trim strips. Avoid: steel plate being thick or reinforced with ribs, inconsistent bending radii, adding wooden or stone countertops, the front panel reaching the ground and being sealed.

接待台由一片 6mm 厚的鋼板經過三次彎折而成:從地面立起、水平轉為檯面、再向下折成前擋板,所以側面看是一個 Z 字形,只有兩個落地的邊。鋼板表面是粉體烤漆的深灰,啞光,彎折處的半徑一致為 30mm。因為是薄板,量體看起來輕,而且側面看得見板的真實厚度。前擋板不到地,離地 200mm,底下可以看穿。檯面上只有一台筆電與一支細的桌燈。整體沒有任何裝飾或收邊條。避免:鋼板做厚或加補強肋、彎折半徑不一致、加入木質或石材檯面、前擋板落地封死。
