QJD design studio - Wildetecture Mantis chair

QJD mantis wildetecture chair – Exploring wild Africa insectiture and Arachniture architectural and furniture conceptual design ideas – Which is a furthering of the wild Africa fauvistic ideals branded wildetecture that QJD design studio has been exploring over the last 5 years or so. Experimenting with architectural shadow projection, perceived kinetic architecture, earth branded architecture, disintegration of perspective, human driven architectural mechanisms, trompe-l'oeil in architecture, the erxell concept and Africa fauvistic architecture. To mention a few synaptic design inspirations. - Because end product furniture design is more immediate than architecture - Exploring the above ideas in this medium gets to a much faster experimentation of form to end product.

The QJD mantis chair is combining the latest cad cam and flat sheet 2 dimensional material into a wild 3d shape and form. As most homes are small and cannot accommodate sculpture and furniture, the wildetect, insectiture, arachniture wild ideal is attempting to create furniture that is a fusion of sculpture, wild colour and is a piece of furniture and art all in one. Being able to see through the pieces like lace adds to the illusion of space that QJD design studio is conceptualising. Bringing wild, wild shape, colour and abit of tongue in cheek wildefoolery into a domestic home setting. South Africans need to respect the colours and shapes of  Africas bushveldt in the home. A wildetect mantis chair can be that subliminal reminder.

QJD design studio specialises in the design of new homes principally. From very modern homes to classic Herbert Baker alterations, having designed garages on a Herbert Baker estate to house a Bugatti Veyron and several other luxury cars. The studio also experiments with the wildetect forum consisting of 2 other wild designers. The studio also dabbles in other design arenas from informal settlement town planning urban landscape ventures like the Erxell concept and electrical conduit ideas to outlandish fashion ideas. Having fun with the concept that is wild Africa fauvistic design  – from furniture to even music. As a designer life is far, far to short to await validation from the creative gate keepers to start creating. Every new design has its many school fees and every wild design will have those who love it and those who absolutely hate it. One has to really concentrate on the few that might be in sync with ones creative ideas. And as much as possible drown out those who simply enjoy a good old creative parade piddle. Remembering those who piddle on your parade, will never themselves create a parade worth pidfling on. Anyway why would you want to buzz kill another creatives work?  All productive creativity should be celebrated, applauded and given design energy to gain perpetual motion . Sadly this is not always  what we as creatives currently experience today with each new design we put forth. You cant control the trolls but you can make sure you as a real artistic creative never ever become one. 

Someone mentioned this roughed out photo shoot setting detracted from the wild chair. The photo shoot was in my back garden with the cheapo vibracrete wall behind. They reckon It all detracted from the chairs crazy design. Well yes it has, but this is a chair that doesnt need a setting to be offset from. Im not trying to implore the wealthy and the insipid using million dollar vibe settings. This chair is wild and untamed and doesnt need a setting to offset it. My roughed out garden is great, chair offsets itself. Go buy your chairs from your uncle in the furniture business if the grass is offensive. I dont need sales to design and implement my furniture design. How else am i going to forefill my starving artist approach to life if i actually make money selling my art work? Anyway this is a wild chair, what you expect?  A tame lounge setting next to the furniture from a wharehouse chain? I think not. Stalking the aloes in suburbia is exactly the vibe im going for. 

 

Wildetecture is a wild Africa fauvistic art concept idea in perpetual motion.
