Moba is a trolley that serves as a multifunctional station for bar serving, mixing, and liquor storage. Designed by Ronnie Chan and Enoch Kwan, this innovative piece of furniture is the perfect addition to any home or entertainment space. What sets Moba apart from other bar carts is its unique combination of functionality and mobility.
Every detail of Moba has been carefully crafted to make it recognizable and visually appealing. From the round edges to the interior compartment, from the wheels to the leather handle, each element showcases the skillful craftsmanship behind this design. Made of dark oak wooden veneer, the trolley exudes elegance and sophistication. The door handle, made of brown-orange leather, adds a touch of luxury. The bar tray, hinge, and other hardware are made of brass stainless steel, ensuring durability and longevity.
One of the standout features of Moba is its versatility. The trolley can be easily maneuvered with a simple push of the leather handle, thanks to the two large side wheels and one small wheel under the trolley. The back of the trolley features storage doors for an ice bucket and bar accessories. The design also includes two stackable cubes that can be used for storage or as a seat or bar tray. Cube One has upward-opening doors for tall side beverage bottles, while Cube Two has a half-swing door for beverage glasses.
Measuring 735mm(W) x 470mm(D) x 900mm(H) overall, Moba is compact yet spacious enough to accommodate all your bar essentials. Cube One measures 360mm(W) x 360mm(D) x 385mm(H), while Cube Two has the same dimensions. This thoughtful design ensures that Moba fits seamlessly into any space, whether it's a small apartment or a larger entertainment area.
The Moba project began in August 2020 in Hong Kong, with the design process starting in September 2020 and the manufacturing completed in December 2020. The designers, Ronnie Chan and Enoch Kwan, conducted extensive research to understand the needs and desires of drinks lovers. They found that many people wanted to enjoy the bar experience at home but lacked the resources to create their own private bar. This insight led to the creation of Moba, a mobility bar that combines functionality, storage, and aesthetics in a compact and elegant design.
Moba has received recognition for its outstanding design. It was awarded the Bronze A' Design Award in the Furniture Design category in 2021. This prestigious award is bestowed upon designs that demonstrate creativity, resourcefulness, and technical expertise. Moba's incorporation of best practices in art, science, design, and technology sets it apart and contributes to improving the quality of life for its users.
With Moba, Ronnie Chan and Enoch Kwan have created a truly unique and innovative piece of furniture. Its mobility, functionality, and elegant design make it a must-have for any drinks lover who wants to bring the bar experience home. Whether you're hosting a party or simply enjoying a quiet evening with friends, Moba is the perfect companion for all your beverage serving and storage needs.
