| DESIGN NAME: Heart PRIMARY FUNCTION: Bike hanger INSPIRATION: Personal needs plus principles in contemporary interiors. It was desire to create object, which will looks nice even in the case, that bike is not there and it will looks that nothing miss there. UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The Hearth is designated for city bikes. Its function is intentionally hidden into the interior accessory. Even though it looks very light and airy, it can really carry a lot thanks to its shape, which will release the weight equally on the wall. The hanging of the bike is dealt with in a very sophisticated way - the bike slides itself into its ideal position and you don't have to worry about hitting an exact point. Hanger has 4 plastic tubes in same color as entire Heart for protection bike. OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: The Heart looks as interior decoration, so nothing is missing there but there is added value in the form of bike hanger. It is possible to place more Hearts, which works very well. PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: Development took 16 months and we got final product in November 2016. FITS BEST INTO CATEGORY: Furniture Design |
PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: Metal weldment and 4 elements have plastic tubes in the same color as metal construction of hanger. SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES: h430mm, w440mm, d370mm TAGS: interior decoration, to show their passion, be proud of your bike RESEARCH ABSTRACT: The bike is a phenomenal invention with the basic geometric which remained unchanged for more than 100 years. However, the people's lifestyle as well as urbanism of our cities is now being changed.Cycling is booming. No matter if it is everyday cycling to work or enjoying your free time, cycling is in. But city apartments don't have cellars and there is not enough space in the interiors. "Garage" hooks will disturb the apartment atmosphere and they can turn down the whole draft. CHALLENGE: First part was a looking for shape, which will be cool, timeless and how to hide main function on this shape. Structure of triangles is perfect for distribution of weight. After final prototype, most difficult part was a looking for right suppliers, who provide the best quality. All part are produced in Czech Republic bespoke, even plastic tubes.

NAME: Hang Bike PROFILE: We are a small team with great determination and enthusiasm for interiors, design and biking. Our aim is to find a suitable and stylish solution forthe storing of a bike in the current interior, which would enable your bike to be its fully-fledged component. We want to produce the systems, which would look good with the bike or without. However, the interior functionality does not suffer. Moreover, we are coming with innovations and we are dealing with movement ergonomics during the lifting of the bike on the hanger. At the same time, we also think about the bikes themselves and their protection from scratches. |
