     Founded and directed by Hung-Ming Chen and Chen-Yen Wei, the studio’s mission is simply to create beautiful products which will increase in value with the passage of time —design with which one can grow old.

     The Taiwanese-born designing duo began their Stockholm-based design studio with the notion of creating modern objects that would only grow more beautiful over time. " Beyond their own work, they see their studio as a launching point for designers around the world who share their philosophy. The inspiration derives from an intriguing interest in forms, senses, proportions, materials and cultures. The thoughtful duo looks to the past as a route to the future, intending their products to grow as treasures, too take, their place for the next generation of designers.

      Time passes and, Hung-Ming Chen and Chen-Yen Wei, that's just the point. The philosophy pivots around simplicity and honesty. The true essence of respecting wear and tear around the central idea of the passage of time.

简单生活的线条 | Afteroom

Afteroom Bench

当你把一切不必要的装饰和内容都抹去后，发现了另一种耐人寻味的“装饰”：作为结构的线条。北欧风格的极简主义讲求抛却所有浮华，然而并不是剩下光秃秃的骨架，结构和质感必须是美的。上面这个长凳，托盘和凳子的支撑一以贯之，形成了简洁但优美的结构。亚光钢管支架、上等皮面坐垫、精细切割的大理石托盘，都构成了这件作品优秀的质感。也即是说，简洁使得结构和质感变得更加突出和重要。在实用方面，不要复杂，但求好用，因为椅子旁边常常需要一只茶几拖过来放东西，为什么不把两者做在一起。

椅子也是一样的，可以将坐垫和靠背的支撑连在一起；当几条Afteroom Chair放在一起，几何的美学立马显现。这里，靠背和座位部分形成面积和形状上的对比。因为靠背只有一个支撑，坐上去估计会有一点弹性的感觉。各部分结构都是容易拆装的，在材料和颜色可以有丰富的选择。

以上是高脚凳版本。Afteroom这个词是来自台湾、现住在斯德哥尔摩的Hung-Ming Chen和 Chen-Yen Wei夫妻档设计师的创造，他们想让房子里的家具能够伴随人老去，承受时间考验，并期待经年变化的效果，于是就将Afteroom作为工作室的名字。作为Bauhaus的拥趸，他们的设计中能够隐约感到现代主义早期的刚性。当然，论风格Afteroom毫无疑问是属于北欧的。
