Executive Desk - Metaphor (Arch Form)

CONCEPT / IDEATION Chose a metaphor of Arch to come up with an unique product form

The metaphor used for this project is the arch and the lemniscate. The understructure is in form of a sleek arch, with a lemniscate residing on top. Historically the arch represents a gateway to heavens, and has been used often in structures and monuments. To me, arches talk to us about opportunity and offer different perspective to different people. The lemniscate (commonly used as a symbol for infinitely) is a geometrical representation of the endless and eternal nature of energy. The form as whole symbolizes the infinite nature of our spirit, thoughts, and potential.
