1/plinth studio的这个概念证明,工业设计师可以在最奇怪的地方找到灵感——甚至他们用来制作东西的工具。这个设计是在凝视一个磨盘时构思出来的,磨盘通常用于磨削或抛光表面。然而,设计师们看到的是一组14个不同寻常的杯垫。每个磁盘都有自己独特的纹理和颜色,结合起来成为一个独特的工业风格设计。这些杯垫中间有一个直径4英寸的圆孔,类似于甜甜圈,可以堆叠在架子上。这个架子有两种尺寸可供选择。它的盖子和底垫是由类似于杯垫的研磨剂组成的。
This concept by 1/plinth studio is proof that industrial designers can find inspiration in the strangest of places — even in the very tools they use to make things. The design was dreamed up upon gazing at an abrasive disc that’s more commonly used for grinding or polishing surfaces. What the designers saw, however, was a set of 14 unusual coasters. Each disc in the stackable set has its own unique texture and color. Combined, they make for a unique conversation starter and add touch of industrial style (and ring protection!) to your tabletop.Designer: 1/plinth studio“The 14 coasters possess a different tactile sensation in order to engage the user and allow a different experience depending on the type of coaster and type of cup used,” 1/plinth studio told Yanko Design.These coasters have holes in the middle made up of a 4-inch diameter disk, similar to a doughnut, and can be stacked on top of one another on a rack. The rack comes in two size options. Its lid and bottom pad are made up of abrasives similar to the coasters which it holds.
