_concept text
barcode room is a concept studio
apartment composed of product furniture-walls which move freely from side to
side, permitting the resident to customize the size of space to fit a variety
of uses. Placing functional elements
such as storage and furniture into these walls, only to be pulled out when in
use, also allows for more of the floor area to be used by the inhabitant and
guests, thus creating a space where one is able to both comfortably live and
entertain a different number of guests easily.
Through
the use of the furniture-wall, or bars, barcode room takes the typical studio
space made for a single resident and allows it to be transformed into a space
where one can live and friends can gather.
Each furniture-wall is a combination of selection from 12 types of components
to make a single bar. Depending on the
combination of components, various types of bars can be created, such as a
living bar, kitchen bar, or sleeping bar.
Just as each object in a store has it’s own barcode, each usage of the
apartment has its own layout, or barcode.
The composition of the various components into different bars, as well
as the position of these bars, allows the user to create their own unique
collection of barcodes for their life.
Additionally,
when different furniture are unfolded or pulled out of the walls, windows
through the space are created as both sides of the wall become connected by
large openings. The dynamic quality of
the space’s changeable size and continuity create a feeling of connectivity
through the space which seems to virtually enlarges the small floor area. By utilizing only a ceiling rail to guide movement
and wheels below to allow it, this versatile system can be installed not only
into new studio apartments, but also in existing apartments as well.
With
continued development of these bars, we wish to create a product that will
allow customers to choose what type of bar they desire so that they can freely
change the size of space within their room.
Furthermore, if components within the walls can also be customized in
terms of size and location as well as the size of the walls themselves (to
match a given setting), then customers can truly daily redefine the space in
which they live, play, and work. In
addition to the domestic use of the furniture-walls, by developing a larger
variety of components to be embedded into the walls, the bars could be used in
a range of spaces including offices, galleries, stores, restaurants, etc.
模様替えの楽しさ。それをもっとダイナミックに、もっと気軽に。
barcode roomは壁を自由に動かして、ユーザーが集まり方に合わせて空間の大きさをカスタマイズできる部屋です。壁に家具の機能を収納し、使うときだけ引き出して使います。壁の家具は12種類に分けられ、そのコンポーネントから組み合わせて、一つの壁「バー」を構成します。例えば棚、机、ベッドなどを選んで組み合わせることができます。
各「バー」の組み合わせによって多様な意味が生成され、それが自由に動かされることによって「バーコード」としての固有の集まり方をつくります。壁は、家具を引き出すことによって窓が開かれ、壁を挟む両側がつながります。空間の大きさと連続性がダイナミックに、使い方に応じて変化していく柔軟なシステムです。
レールさえ天井に設置すれば、構造に関係なく既存のワンルームにも応用が可能な、汎用性の高いシステムを備えています。オーダーメイドではなくプロダクトとして数種類の使い方を想定してつくることで、コストを抑えながらユーザーが自分に合わせて選択することができます。
一人でこもるための部屋から、人を呼んで集まるための部屋へ。barcode roomはあなただけの集まり方をつくります。
