Unfamiliar Forms, Familiar Functions.

Tilt-Tray is an exploration of integrating a specific geometric method—the ellipsoidal void formed by tilting a circle—into the fabric of daily life. While an unprescribed ellipsoidal depression may be an unfamiliar sight in a domestic setting, it functions as a tray that embraces versatile "margins," allowing for a variety of uses and interpretations.

Tilt-Trayは「円を傾ける事でできる楕円体」のメソッドを生活の中に入れ込むことを趣旨としています。機能を特定しない楕円体のくぼみは日常ではあまり見慣れたものではありませんが、様々な余白を許容するトレイとなるでしょう。
