普象-让好设计发光

ZHE is a lightweight and minimalist rocking chair with an elegant form conveyed by the tensile force that is applied over the elastic mesh.

The design intent is to create a chair that does not require a complicated manufacturing process. In light of this, the steel tube construction combined with elastic mesh makes the product’s production much more efficient. The translucent mesh of ZHE reveals the elegance of the curved steel tubes as well as the curvature of the chair’s shell, which is shaped by tensile force. The chair’s structure is supported by a steel tube skeleton wrapped in stretchy elastic mesh. Both the steel tube and the elastic mesh are recyclable, which makes ZHE environmentally friendly.

ZHE is significantly lighter than a traditional wooden rocking chair due to its lightweight construction and it is designed to be easily moved around. Thanks to the UV-resistant elastic mesh for outdoor use, the chair is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. Furthermore, its ergonomic design provides excellent comfort, and the relaxed sitting position in particular allows the user to sit for extended periods of time. The armrest is integrated into the minimal chair form, making ZHE both functional and beautiful.

ZHE是一款轻巧、极简的摇椅，其设计意图是创造一把不需要复杂制造工艺的椅子。有鉴于此，钢管结构与弹性网的结合使产品的生产效率大大提升。

ZHE的半透明网状结构显示了弧形钢管的优雅，椅子外壳的弧度通过拉伸力塑造。椅子的结构由包裹着弹性网的钢管骨架支撑，钢管和弹性网都是可回收的，这使得ZHE非常环保。

轻质结构的设计使得ZHE比传统的木制摇椅要轻得多，并且可以方便地移动。由于采用了用于户外的抗紫外线弹性网，这把椅子既适合室内也适合户外使用。此外，它的人体工程学设计提供了极好的舒适性，扶手与极简主义的椅子外形融为一体，使ZHE既实用又美观。
