Orosi Case: A Fusion of Tradition and Modernity

Revolutionizing Bookcase Design with Iranian Architectural Influence

In a world where design is constantly evolving, Fateme Hatami and Hanieh ForootanMram have created a unique piece of furniture that marries tradition with modernity. The Orosi Case, an innovative bookcase design, draws inspiration from the rich architectural history of Iran, specifically the Orosi windows, symbolizing light penetration and spread.

The Orosi Case stands out in the realm of furniture design due to its unique properties. It is a library based on Iranian traditional architecture, utilizing original geometric shapes and symmetry. The fusion of tradition and modernity brings magnificence and grandeur to the interiors of buildings. The shelves, made from natural materials like bamboo, are environmentally friendly and offer users the flexibility to decorate their spaces in various styles.

The production of the Orosi Case involves the use of light hollow wood, bamboo, reminiscent of Girih patterns. The design incorporates both warm and cool LED lights to provide an appropriate lighting system, considering the health of user's eyes. The plates of the bookcase are produced using 3D printers, making the process efficient and precise.

The Orosi Case is not just a piece of furniture; it's an interactive design that influences people's perceptions and feelings. The geometric forms, deeply rooted in culture, help users concentrate better on their targets and endure against tiredness subconsciously. This thoughtful design approach makes the Orosi Case more than just a bookcase; it's a piece of art that enhances the user's experience.

The design process of the Orosi Case was not without challenges. The goal was to create a shelf that doesn't destroy the walls and can be moved easily. To achieve this, resistant woods like hollow natural bamboos were used. The design team also faced the challenge of creating a form rich in historical background, which required a significant amount of time.

The Orosi Case is a testament to the power of design and its ability to blend history, culture, and modernity. The design was recognized for its outstanding expertise and innovation, winning the Silver A' Furniture Design Award in 2019. This award is given to top-of-the-line, creative, and professionally remarkable designs that introduce positive feelings, amazement, and wonder.
