Organic Furniture Forms: Growing from the Ground

A large, organic mass of furniture. It could be a sofa, a seating arrangement, or a countertop, with an irregular and continuous form: wide and thick at the base, resting directly on the floor without legs, narrowing upwards and flaring out at some point to form a seating surface or countertop. The silhouette is a free curve, with no two points being the same. The surface is entirely clad in microcement or mineral plaster, with a color close to the floor, making it appear as if the floor has risen rather than an object placed upon it. The surface has subtle undulations and a sense of direction left by hand-troweling. Several plain, coarse-woven cushions are placed on top. The surrounding walls are also curved. Avoid: making the furniture and floor colors distinctly different, adding visible legs and bases, making the form regular geometric, using a smooth, flawless surface.

一件大型的有機量體家具。它可能是一張沙發、一組座位或一段檯面,形體是不規則而連續的:底部寬而厚實,直接落在地上沒有腳,向上收窄並在某處外擴形成坐面或檯面,輪廓是自由的曲線,沒有兩處相同。表面以微水泥或礦物塗料一體包覆,顏色與地面接近,因此看起來像地板隆起而不是放上去的物件。表面有手工抹平留下的細微起伏與方向感。上面鋪著幾個素色的粗織坐墊。周邊的牆面同樣是曲面。避免:讓家具與地面的顏色明顯不同、加入可見的椅腳與底座、把形體做成規則的幾何、使用光滑無痕的表面。
