The Superheroes project put into practice by the Swedish design studio Glimpt – Mattias Rask and Tor Palm – is inspired by the Vietnamese culture and crafts. Traveling in Vietnam and visiting various craftsmen in Ho Chi Minh City, the two designers have studied the techniques, materials and colors used by these ones. Here, they came in contact with handmade products especially made from paper and sea grass and they have decided to translate, to a larger scale, these work techniques in pieces of furniture. Supported by UMA, a local furniture company, the collaboration with the local artisans materialized into a collection of chairs named Superheroes, which combines the Scandinavian design with Vietnamese craft. The chairs are made on an internal metal frame using colored threads and sea grass. Although they are small handcrafted pieces of furniture, the supplies made by Glimpt have bold designs with a unique and vibrant personality. Via Glimpt
由瑞典设计工作室Glimpt-MattiasRask和ToRPalm公司实施的超级英雄项目受到越南文化和工艺的启发。在越南旅行和参观明明市的各种工匠时,两位设计师研究了这些人使用的技术、材料和颜色。在这里,他们接触了手工制品,特别是由纸张和海草制成的,并且他们已经决定将这些工作技术转化为更大规模的家具。当地一家家具公司UMA的支持,与当地的工匠协作,形成了一批名为超级英雄的椅子,将斯堪的纳维亚设计与越南工艺结合起来。椅子在内部金属框架上使用有色螺纹和海草制成。虽然他们是小手工制作的家具,但Glimpt制造的用品有大胆的设计,具有独特的和充满活力的个性。通过GlimptMPT
