A3 poster of iSOFA
Picture of Rationale
Detail of Rationale:
The material I have chosen are the soft drink can and cap, with the rubber pipes as well.
The idea is to make a ‘sofa’ for iphone. Initially, I have made the two cans combined together to become stronger with the pattern on the back side. Thus, the back side looks stratified. The disposable cap of the bottle would be used to make the basis to guarantee the height of the whole product. There is a problem that the shape edges of the can would hurt iphone therefore the whole object needs a protective layer.
Moreover, the disposable rubber pipes from the automobile service factory would be cut into sections with a line of cut to be the protective layers for iphone from being hurt by surrounding the sharp edges.
The back pattern of the object represents the waving of the soft drink water.
Talking about the shape of the item, the whole idea does not change the shape of the basic raw material. Furthermore, it makes the common can to be more functional and artistic.
A small gap with the shape to fit the iphone cable is made to be more functional. The user would put the iphone on the ‘iSOFA’ with charging at the same time without falling down.
There is a whole slice cut out of can would made to decorate the inside of ‘iSOFA’ to keep the initial appearance of the soft drink. There is an alternative part would be accessed to ‘iSOFA’. There is a slice to insert the gap between the two cans at the back with a section of rubber pipe at the top to protect iphone.

This is a cute design Yiwen! I used cans as well but i could never think of using it as a phone holder! It's small and compact. However the top ends could be finished different, like you could of put rubber on there as well? And maybe if you used the other side of cans, like the shiny silver side, it could look more 'industrial', but either way, I like it! :)
回复删除I quite like this iphone dock. Using cans as raw material is great because it is really easy to be recycled and the amount is enormous. Putting an iPhone on this dock is like the king sitting on his sofa, very interesting. However, the original labels on the can make the product not elegant and not up-cycled, hope you find a better way solving this problem.
回复删除This is creative what you do to make a can becoming a phone holder. I like the artistic aesthetic of it as well. But however it looks sharp, i am scared that the phone could be scratched. mayb you could make the edges softer. but however, it looks interesting.
回复删除This is a nice design by using cans straight to a iphone dock, this can be recycled after a while without giving further waste. However, there are still some sharp edges that can scratch the phone or even cut our hands.
回复删除the design is nice it is very colorful and it can save lots of material also the poster is beautiful
