Knock Down Furniture

Knock down furniture is the idea..! This time the project is a demand for my colleague Mr Matthew Flinchum, a teacher who taught at a school in Kobe City of Japan.
He wants 1 set table tea with knockdown system because it would bring him back by himself during a visit to Indonesia.
That is, design must be concise to ease in the packaging and carrying.

Design consists of two compartments, each room with 1 shelf and 1 piece board liaison between  compartment.
I divided each compartment room into 5 parts component, which is:
  • 1 piece base part
  • 2 pieces side panel
  • 1 piece rear panel
  • 1 piece top part


 base part
I created a groove on the base part to placement side & rear panel, so it can stand and not shift.


 
  side panel





pres-fit connection

side panel can stand upright and it won't shift due to the groove on base part



rear panel

next step is stringing the rear panel, the connection between side and rear panel by shifting down so both positions were locked in order to revive a whole construction.
 


locked position 

the next process is the installation of the upper part which is also using the connection with groove.


 
top part

 complete compartment

here it looks overall compartment construction.



2 compartments and 1 piece board liaison between compartment

the last is to combine two rooms with 1 piece board liaison.

With the knockdown system this product to be concise in packaging, and of course will be very cost-saving luggage in the plane.

Thank you Mr. Matthew Flinchum has entrusted the manufacture of tea table to me.
