Description Studio project aims to create innovative workplace furniture solutions for the international market. The project will focus on leveraging advanced manufacturing technologies to enhance the design, production, and sustainability of workplace furniture in India. The project will challenge cutting-edge manufacturing methods to create furniture that is both functional andaesthetically pleasing.

The project will be divided into two phases. In the first phase, students will explore the latest manufacturing technologies and identify those that are most suitable for the context. Based on their research, students will develop a design brief that outlines the key requirements for their furniture designs.

In the second phase, students will use their design briefs to create innovative workplace furniture solutions with appropriate range. They will use advanced manufacturing technologies to produce prototypes of their designs and test them for functionality, durability, and sustainability. Throughout this phase, students will be encouraged to experiment with different materials, shapes, and finishes to create furniture that is both functional and aesthetically pleasing.

By the end of this project, students will have developed a deep understanding of the market and its specific needs. They will also have gained valuable experience in using advanced manufacturing technologies to create innovative furniture designs. This project provides a unique opportunity for students to bridge design creativity with technological innovation.

Learning Outcomes After completing this studio, the students will be able to: Conduct research on the market and identify the specific needs of workplace furniture.

They will also learn to develop a design brief that outlines the key requirements for their furniture designs.

Explore the latest manufacturing technologies and identify those that are most suitable for this elected context. They will also learn to use advanced manufacturing technologies to produce prototypes of their designs and test them for functionality, durability, and sustainability.

mesa by shalini a s

design brief The aim is to design a workstation that can adapt to various types of workspaces. MESA is a modular desking system that works on a ‘central power spine’ concept. The worktable comes in a single user module as well as a dual user module that can be extended linearly as needed to create various layouts for workspaces. The cable manager ensures that the desks do not look cluttered and can also accomodate the user’s additional electronics like laptop and mobile chargers.

FINAL DESIGN

Mesa comes with other accessories like privacy panels, modesty panels, accessory hooks etc. The table top finish, fabrics of panels and table legs can be customized to create different moods in the office.

Mesa is also a flatpack system that is easy to transport and can be assembled using only an allen key.

configur space by rushant gautam

design brief The concept of creating a cohesive workplace envi- ronment through a standardized furniture system is aimed at streamlining design variations across different office areas, such as cubicles, executive desks, shelving and conference tables.

By utilizing a common set of components and configurations, this approach allows for a unified aesthetic and functional language throughout the office. Not only does it promote consistency, but it also en- hances cost-effectiveness by leveraging shared manufacturing processes and minimizing inventory complexity. This system enables flexibility in designing various office elements while maintaining efficiency in production and assembly.

modular by angi sanghvi

design brief A system of tables that is easy to stack, assemble, break down, and reassemble over time according to space requirements.

By stacking multiple units vertically, these workstations make efficient use of vertical space while maintaining a small footprint on the floor and being easily transported. A modular component is designed in such a way that it can be easily added, removed, or replaced within the workstation system. This modularity allows for customisation and flexibility in configuring the workstation according to specific needs and preferences.
