Zeen
Zeen creates a different experience for the user than sitting. An old experience that is revived in the use of zeen. Apart from this experience, the different appearance of this chair influence the interior space and creates a lasting image in the user’s mind. Zeen consists of five parts. A metal sheet that is cut and engraved by cnc method, then bent with a press machine. Wooden panels that are cut and bent to create the seat and backrest and are finally covered with leather. The metal parts that connect the wood panels to the body and finally the iron pipes that resist the tensile force. This chair, inspired by riding a horse, bears the name “Zeen,” a Farsi word for “saddle.” It consist of a curved metal body, and leather surfaces on the seat and backrest, evoking a sense of motion and agility. Despite its unconventional appearance, it creates a striking and elegant image in the mind. the main challenge is to shape the body because it is curved in two axes. It is possible to create a double curve for this plate through molding and pressing the sheet on the mold. This shape can also be created using casting techniques.
