Manfada

FORM EXPLORATION
ORANGE + WHITE

A vertical line.
Two circular pauses.

A compact composition of a channel, a shallow tray and a small cup, organised around one upright element.

01 / A SMALL COMPOSITION

Balance without
symmetry.

Manfada sets a large, shallow circle on one side of a slender upright and a smaller, deeper circle on the other. The two elements share an axis without sharing the same scale.

A meeting of shapes

The rim.
The junction.

02 / THREE GEOMETRIC GESTURES

I.

An open groove at the top of the orange spine provides a resting place for an unlit cigarette, joint or cigar. Its rounded section breaks the otherwise straight, rectangular profile.

II.

The wide, shallow dish is the ashtray: a horizontal plane that catches ash. Its fine white rim catches the light along a continuous curve.

III.

The small cup is used to extinguish the cigarette, joint or cigar. Orange continues into its interior, tying the deeper volume to the upright.

Another angle from the study

Three forms.
One composition.

03 / CHANGE THE VIEW

Every angle
rearranges it.

From the front, the shallow dish becomes a thin ellipse across the orange plane. From the side, the central body reads as a vertical line. The renders examine how these simple parts overlap and separate as the viewpoint changes.

04 / HELD TOGETHER BY CONTRAST

Orange inside.
White around.

The colour study separates the central mass from the elements that surround it. Orange fills the channel and cup; white outlines the vessels and wraps the upright in a horizontal band.

A digital form and colour exploration. The project record shown here consists of CAD and rendered views; material selection, manufacture and use testing remain outside this study.
