Revolutionizing Furniture Design: The S13 Sideboard

Unveiling Dren Begolli's Award-Winning 3D Patterned Sideboard

Renowned designer Dren Begolli introduces the S13 Sideboard, a revolutionary piece of furniture that combines innovative 3D printing technology with traditional craftsmanship. This design, which won the prestigious Golden A' Furniture Design Award in 2018, showcases Begolli's unique approach to modern furniture design.

The S13 Sideboard is not just a storage unit; it's a piece of art. Inspired by the increasing use of 3D printers and CNC machines in the furniture industry, Begolli envisioned a sideboard with a 3D pattern that creates a mesmerizing moving effect. The front of the sideboard, with its symmetrical, proportionate design, is the star of the show. The contrast between light and shadow, along with the materials used, adds to the sideboard's allure.

Begolli's design stands out for its unique properties. The sideboard's front view doesn't reveal where the doors separate, adding to its mystery. The combination of simplicity and imposing form transforms it into a powerful decorative piece suitable for both contemporary and traditional homes.

The S13 Sideboard is constructed from MDF materials colored in gold, with satin or polished metal accents. The doors are crafted using a CNC 3D machine, demonstrating the perfect blend of technology and design. The sideboard measures 1800 mm in width, 500 mm in depth, and 880 mm in height.

The design process, which began in September 2017 and concluded in February 2018, took place in Prishtina. Begolli's research focused on the draft form and the final dimension of the shapes. The challenge was to find the right design that would give the feeling of 3D patterns in motion. The result is a sideboard that is not only functional but also visually striking.

The S13 Sideboard is a testament to Begolli's innovative spirit and commitment to pushing the boundaries of furniture design. It's a celebration of modern technology's role in transforming traditional furniture into pieces of art. The sideboard's unique design and the use of 3D printing technology have earned it the Golden A' Furniture Design Award, a recognition given to outstanding creations that advance art, design, and technology.
