RESEARCH ABSTRACT: -
CHALLENGE: Most of the same types of products are located as electronic products, which makes the product lose some affinity, and we integrated the “baby face” into the furniture, which can be more naturally integrated into the indoor environment. Therefore, after repeated consideration and testing, we decided to adopt the way of wrapping cashmere cloth. In order to ensure the effect of the stretcher and avoid obvious seams, this process takes a lot of time and economic costs.
