Saltatur  Furniture

Saltatur

Saltatur is a long-span table designed as a prefabricated composite structure. The table combines a compression-only concrete body, post-tensioning steel rods and an ultra-thin glass top. The glass top is shaped as a funicular three-hinged arch spanning 3.75 meters. The structural form was developed with three-dimensional graphic statics, so the concrete body is held in compression by tension ties at the top and bottom. The discrete spatial system reduces the volume of concrete and the carbon footprint while preserving the mass needed for structural performance.

Rhythm is a sales center in Changshu, China, with an area of 1050 square meters. Simple and free curved lines shape the exterior wall design, so the building appears as a floating light box and forms a visual focus. Inside the sales center, a waving rhythm serves as both decoration and boundary. Grey and white forms interlace to connect the spaces on the first and second floors while dividing them into areas. Several kinds of marble are used, and wood lines form geometric elevations made by skilled carpenters.
