Introduction to Sensorial Product Design
Product design often bridges the gap between function and aesthetics. When it comes to working with delicate flowers, the challenge extends beyond preserving their physical form. It delves into capturing the essence, memories, and intrinsic beauty they carry. DCL explores the intricate process of preserving flowers, particularly the cherry blossom and reinterpreting its significance through innovative design.
The Challenge of Preserving Delicate Flowers
Flowers, by their very nature, are ephemeral. Their beauty is fleeting, making the task of preserving them both an art and a science. The difficulty lies in maintaining their delicate structure and vibrant colors. This process often requires meticulous attention to detail and advanced and hardworking preservation techniques. The goal is to create a product that not only retains the flower’s beauty but also its symbolic meanings and the memories it carries.
Symbolism and Reinterpretation of the Cherry Blossom
The cherry blossom is more than just a flower; it symbolizes renewal, beauty, and the transient nature of life. However, there is much more to its significance. By looking beyond conventions, we can reinterpret the cherry blossom as a symbol of uniqueness and diversity. This is where materials like glass come into play. With its transparency, glass can protect the preserved flower while revealing its intricate details, much like how art manifests through light. This design approach encourages us to see the cherry blossom as a representation of our multifaceted identities and experiences.
