这是南非最大的狩猎故事,也是为什么奥卡会被选为装饰供应商。众所周知,在过去的一年里,OKHA将其标志性的家具设计从开普敦带到伦敦、洛杉矶、芝加哥、迈阿密和纽约,现在又来到了这里。还计划包括在亚洲和中东的代表权。在与更为成熟的高端家具品牌竞争时,为什么建筑和设计行业会选择奥卡?看看最近的一些研究可能会给出答案。
The biggest safari story in Southern Africa, andwhy OKHA was the chosen décor supplier,It’s no secret that over the past year,OK,A has taken its signature furniture designs from Cape Town,to London, Los Angeles, Chicago,Miami and New York, and now there are also plans to include,representation in Asia and the Middle East. When competing with far more established premium furniture brands, why is the architecture and design industry choosing OKHA?A look at some recent work might provide the answer.
奥卡为新的豪华狩猎旅馆“猎豹平原”(Cheetah Plains)设计了一件宣言服装,该旅馆位于萨比沙动物保护区(Sabi Sand Game Reserve)。他们与ARRCC(建筑师和室内设计师)和SAOTA的建筑师Stefan Antoni密切合作。Stefan透露:无论建筑有多好,只有当内部保持了那种复杂的水平,它才能成功。他认为奥卡有能力设计出既能体现建筑之美又能体现建筑之美的家具。
”OKHA created statement pieces for new luxury safari lodge, Cheetah Plains, which is set in the Sabi Sand Game Reserve. They worked in close collaboration with ARRCC (the architects and interior designers) and architect, Stefan Antoni of SAOTA. Stefan reveals that “No matter how goo d architecture is, it can onlysucceed when the interior upholds that level of sophistication.” He feels that OKHA is able to “design furniture that upholds an d mirrors the beauty of architecture”.
ARRCC的主管Jon Case是这个项目的主设计师,他说他选择与OKHA合作是因为他们在更深层次的叙述上有着独特的能力。他们扎根于非洲,但着眼于独特的国际审美,而且他们与艺术家和工匠有联系,这有助于给家具一种手工制作的感觉。乔恩最喜欢的项目是拉古纳咖啡桌和其他定制咖啡桌,他说这些增加了房间的重量和坚固性,因为它们与建筑主题紧密相连。OKHA创意总监亚当•考特(Adam Court)表示,他花了10个月的时间来完成这个项目,“我们想设计出感觉像内部景观的作品,使用具有内在价值和美感的材料,这些材料会随着时间的推移而进化和改进,就像外部景观的有机发展一样。
The project consists of three independent bush houses, named Mapogo , Mvula and Karula , each made up of several individual structures which include a central lounge, and dining room with bar area, a family media and entertainment room, a covered terrace, an open boma courtyard and separate freestanding bedroom suites. ARRCC Director Jon Case who was the lead designer for the project says that he chose to work with OKHA because of their “distinct ability to connect to a deeper narrative. They are rooted in Africa but always have their eye on an international aesthetic that is unique, and they are connected to artists and craftsmen which help to give the furniture a handcrafted feel which was so important to the overall language of Cheetah Plains.” Jon’s favourite pieces from the project are the Laguna coffee table and other bespoke coffee tables which he says, “added weight and solidity to the rooms because they are connected so well to the architectural theme.” Working on the project over the course of 10 months, OKHA creative director Adam Court says; “We wanted to design pieces that felt like an internal landscape, using materials that have inherent value and beauty which evolve and improve over time in the same way that this process happens organically in the external landscape .
