Stol v kombinaciji lesa in stekla

Tratar, Jera (author), Pak, Tanja (mentor)

V diplomski nalogi sem raziskovala, kako oblikovati in izdelati uporaben in udoben stekleno lesen stol. Posvetila sem se lastnostim obeh materialov in ju želela izpostaviti v konceptu stola. Cilj je bil doseči estetsko ustrezen in uporaben izdelek, ki je sestavljen izključno iz teh dveh materialov. Moj osebni cilj pri izdelovanju diplome je bil, da bi preizkusila svoje sposobnosti pri oblikovanju in sami ročni izdelavi izdelka z določeno idejo in v danem času. Zastavila sem si nalogo, ki je bolj tehnične narave kot projekti, ki sem se jih lotevala v preteklosti, saj mi je to predstavljalo izziv. Naloge sem se lotila z raziskavo o zgodovini stola, ki je imel v preteklosti močan simbolni pomen. Najpomembnejša pri načrtovanju je ergonomija stola, saj je sedenje samo po sebi telesu škodljivo. Poglobila sem se v lastnosti uporabljenih materialov, s poudarkom na steklenem delu. Opisala sem nekatere vrste stekla in možnosti njegove nadaljnje obdelave ter podrobneje opisala laminirano steklo, ki sem ga glede na specifikacije označila kot najprimernejšega za zadano nalogo. Navedla sem tudi plošne lastnosti lesa in nekaj informacij o ameriškem orehu kot vrsti, ki sem jo izbrala. V praktičnem delu naloge pa je opisan sam postopek izdelave in izzivov, s katerimi sem se pri tem soočala.

• Title: Chair in a combination of wood and glass

Abstract

This BA thesis describes the process of designing a usable and comfortable chair made of glass and wood. It outlines the specifics of both materials and how they can be integrated into a concept of a chair. The main goal was to design an aesthetically pleasing and useful product that would be made exclusively out of these two materials. I was striving to push my limits as a designer, creating a handmade product in a limited amount of time based on a concept that I had developed in my mind. The paper starts by looking into the history of chairs, which had a strong symbolic meaning in the past, and the basics of ergonomic design. This is followed by an overview of the characteristics of glass and wood, and specifically laminated glass and American oak as the materials chosen as the most appropriate given the circumstances. The practical part of the thesis then describes the process of making the product and the challenges encountered.
