凝固的雨是我们师法自然，感受无用之用的一次有趣尝试，因受邀参加深圳创意设计周的【触景】装置展而受到大家的关注。与以往家具作品的设计语境不同，这次的设计没有既定的设计对象与功能需求，只要求在【触景】这一主题下衍生出自己的设计。看似没有限制的设计与设计师而言是更难的，因为他需要去寻找自己的设计出发点。我们需要往更本质的层面去寻找设计的基点，并做一个去功能化，更抽象化的家具。

"Freezing rain" is a fun furniture design experiment and a design that learns from nature.This furniture design received attention due to the invitation to “Touch”, the exhibition of Shenzhen Creative Design Week.Interestingly, this design has no design objects and functional requirements.The only requirement is to design under the theme of "Touch".Designs without explicit objects and requirements are even more difficult for designers.Designers need to find their own design starting point.So we look for the idea about a more fundamental level .

由【触景】这个命题生发了小时候对暴雨这一自然现象的记忆，产生了几个关键词：半透、模糊、线性、流动与多变。砌筑空间可以造景造境，那么我们设计的家具是否也能造景造境，去还原一种带有普遍认知的感受？如对云端落雨的感受，这成为这次设计的基点。

From the theme of “Touch” we thought of heavy rain and came up with a few keywords: translucent, fuzzy, linear, flowing and changeable.If a space can create imagination, then can we design furniture to create imagination and present it in a simple form? Like the cloud falling raindrops, this became the concept for this design.

不锈钢材质触感冰冷，视觉观感丰富的同时材质灵活可塑，而这些材料特性使得其成为我们要物化云端落雨意向的绝佳选择。钢板上切割出的“线”可以作为结构支撑；而切割的规则以家具的受力点出发，不同的受力要求造成了“线”的疏密变化，从而的产生了“落雨般”的视觉效果。

Stainless steel is cold, reflect the surrounding environment, and the material is flexible and easy to model.These features to make stainless steel a great choice of us materialize the rainy scene.The "line" cut out of the steel plate can serve as a structural support.And the rule of cutting is with the distribution of the force of the furniture. Different stress distributions result from a change in the density of the “line”, thus created a visual effect like “falling rain”.

“凝固的雨”包含了躺椅、茶几与屏风，功能上可以单独使用也可以组合成一个最小的休憩场所。不锈钢的镜面反射使其可以轻松融入并呼应各式空间环境，可以作为户外家具落身于庭院，也可以加个可拆卸的软垫落身室内，让坐躺更舒适。去除了具体功能的不锈钢家具有着出乎意料的多样性与包容性，百变的镜面效果会诱发人的好奇心，展会上有不少人会驻足于屏风前，观看屏风里的自己。

“Freezing rain” includes a chaise lounge, a small table and a screen.These furnitures can be used alone or combined like a small resting space.The mirror reflection of the stainless steel allows the furniture to integrate and respond to all kinds of space environment.This set of furniture can be used as outdoor furniture in the courtyard, or as interior furniture, with a detachable cushion to make the chair more comfortable.Stainless steel furniture has unexpected diversity.Varied mirror effects will cause curiosity, that many people in the exhibition stopped in front of the screen and watch themselves in the screen.
