DESIGN NAME: Wine Credenza II
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Table
INSPIRATION: As our standard of living is improving, so does conveniences. As the essential meaning of culture is being forgotten, however, it seems that it is improving only quantitatively. This work accomplishes two purpose. First is the pleasure to think about what to choose fully before drinking one of them, having various bottles of wine. Second is the playful pleasure to move those wines in person and it is combined with the use of a table on which you can put the bottle of wine to drink.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The Wine credenza II is a fusion between a table and a wine holder. The rails and metal frames in the table holds the wine, and users can get one of these by turning the handle. Users will enjoy the process of turning the wine. Users do not just appreciate the work visually, but they use it directly and become the medium of communication between the artist and the user.
OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: This credenza gives you the fun of rotating the handle and choosing the wine. You can take one out and put it on the table. Stainless steel wine cover can keep wine cold, walnut table can block external light.

RESEARCH ABSTRACT: I researched the existing wine storage and credenza. I concerned about protection of wine and function of table. Also rotating part. To rotating wine holder, it needed gears and chains. I spent only a few months in my desk and gear assembly. And cut the wood, made the table and wine storage, polished and each part was assembled.
CHALLENGE: The biggest challenge is rotating part. I studied the mechanism of rotating part and handle. I rendered a lot of models and I focused on fixing the wine holder so that it did not shake while working. And
after I made it, I checked to see if it was easy for users to use.
