莲桌
hasu

“hasu”是nendo为1740年创建的法国皇家御用瓷器品牌Sèvres设计的一款矮桌，精心制作的细节充分反映了该品牌一贯传承的优雅品质。

A low table that was designed for the Manufacture Nationale de Sèvres, founded in 1740 as the royal porcelain, today a national living heritage whose tradition and skill remain unchanged.

“hasu”从一张方形的桌子逐渐分散为一组圆形小桌，最终变成荷叶的形态。这种从平整光滑的人工表面向具有丰富纹理的自然外观的过渡，使桌子整体呈现出“漂浮”和“流动”的感觉。通过改变小圆桌的位置，还能够改变“流动”的速度和方向。

Reflecting the characteristics of the Sèvres Porcelains which are endowed with a full range of expertly crafted decorative details, the design encompassed a square-shaped table gradually dispersing into a group of small round-shaped tables, and then transforming into lotus leaves. The gradient transition from the flat and smooth artifacts to natural objects with expressive texture was used to represent the “floating” and “flowing” sensation of water. The speed and the direction of the “flow” can also be varied by changing the positioning of the small tables.

手柄花系列
handle-flower

Sèvres的产品中包括数目众多的茶杯和茶壶，而“handle-flower”正是由这些器皿的把手制作而成的艺术品系列。

Among the enormous archive of Sèvres, attention was drawn to the vast quantity of handles that were made for the numerous cups and pots. Using these handles of various sizes and shapes, porcelain flowers were created.

尺寸和形状不一的手柄共同组成一朵花的造型，并通过对花瓣数量、间隙和角度的调整来为每朵花赋予专属的特性。不同于创造新的形象，“handle-flower”利用本身就具有独特历史意义的元素和形状为Sèvres品牌赋予了新的内涵。

Each handle represents a flower petal, and adjustments were made to the number, gaps and angles of the petals, so that each characteristic of the handle would become the uniqueness of the flower. Instead of reinventing completely new shapes, a new “Sèvres” was expressed through the usage of figures that has a unique historical meaning to the manufacturer.
