相信每个人至少在孩提时代都遥望云端,瞬息万变的云朵总会让我们想到各种有意思的事物,也曾畅想过躺在云上的奇妙感受。那时候的我们想法总是无拘无束——即使上天又何尝不可?
Everyone had ever stared at the clouds up in the sky at least in childhood, fascinated by the various interesting images that the clouds reminded us of and imaging the wonderful sensation lying on the soft clouds. At the time, we were so na?ve and free in mind that even flying on the sky was accessible.
云的故事始于2014年, 在grado设计师Wendy Liu的眼中,除了漂浮的轻盈感,云是一种柔软的有机形态。正如人对沙发的需求,也并不是一味的正襟危坐,而是追求多样的坐姿,以找寻最舒适的感觉,也许是靠着,趴着,躺着或者半卧着。
The story of the cloud began in 2014. In the eyes of Wendy Liu, a grado designer, in addition to the lightness of floating, cloud features a soft organic form. Just like what people want for a sofa: instead of keening on a stiffly square position, people tend to pursue flexible sitting positions on the sofa so that they can determine the most ideal and comfortable one at the time, be it reclining, lying prostrate, lying down or half-lying.
那么能否设计一款像云的沙发,来满足人们的所有坐姿需求呢?
So, is it viable that we design a cloud-like sofa which can meet people’s needs for all sitting positions?
这其实是一个看似天马行空,实则需要仔细推敲的想法。因为人体在与沙发的接触中,不同的身体部位需要的支撑感是不同的。在柔软的外表下,这朵云注定需要充满细节和缜密的思索。
Such a seemingly unrealistic idea, actually, requires incessant meticulous consideration since the different part of human body needs distinct supporting strength in the contact of the sofa, which means detailed and thorough deliberation has to be made behind its soft appearance.

但是云的故事没有戛然而止,经过6年家具设计的工作经历和生活经验,让设计师在云沙发中产生了新的思索:如何让更多人能够感受到云沙发对人的温度?
However, the story of the cloud continues. Work and life experience in furniture design for six years triggered in the designer new inspirations for Cloud Sofa: how to enable more people to feel the temperature of Cloud Sofa to them?
为了云沙发能够面向市场,grado对所有问题都需要重新思考,如何将一件作品成功转化为产品?结构上如何优化,提升质量,达到量产目的?
For the Cloud Sofa to be market-oriented, grado needs to rethink all related issues: how to successfully transform a work into a product? how to optimize the structure, and improve the quality to achieve mass production?
经过六年的思考与反复推敲,2020年设计师对云沙发的造型与结构再次升级,以营造grado一直在推崇的空间美学为宗旨,希望它能够完美的融入空间中,完成人们对于云端的幻想,同时在价格上能够被大众接受。
After six years’ deliberation and constant exploration, the designer upgraded the shape and structure of Cloud Sofa in 2020 again, aiming at creating the space aesthetics that grado has been advocating. The designer hopes the new version can be perfectly integrated into the space and able to realize people’s fantasies about clouds, and be acceptable to the public in terms of price as well.
