DESIGN NAME: PetMoblant
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Mobile Planter
INSPIRATION: Pollution , as the main reason for needing clean lungs and clean air .
What if you can have an object that returns to you with clean air/lungs , moves with you as a pet , and does not need cleaning .
PetMoblant , will return to you with a cleaner air , and help seeding the path the faster you move .
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: PetMoblant is shaped by aerodynamics , and streamlined as a water drop .
The aerodynamic shape is supplied with wheels and mobile .
It hosts plants , so you can pet , and take them on a walk ; They will return to you with a cleaner air , and help seeding the path the faster you move .
OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: Mobile planter , used as a pet with a leash : Your clean air going with you .
PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: Project was executed in January 2019 and exhibited in Beirut in February 2019
FITS BEST INTO CATEGORY: Furniture Design

PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: Created by stacking birch plywood sheets ;
Section has been cut out of the modeled 3d form . Sheets were aligned in order , clamps inserted .
Sanded in order to smooth the forms , then a gluing transparent layer applied .
An aluminum frame for the top cover has been CNC cut , then fitted manually by sanding .
SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES: 56x43x24cm ; Wooden package : 62x48x30cm
TAGS: Planter , Toy , mobile , wheels
RESEARCH ABSTRACT: Using 3d max for forms . CNC cutting for the plywood layers .
Shaped by aerodynamics , and streamlined as a water drop .
A design based on an organic parametric shape , reflecting the natural geometry , imbuing the rigid nature of wood with the fluidity of the water drop.
CHALLENGE: Experimenting and executing the form in different types of wood .
