SHI is a kind of storage-type tea tray, which is made of natural stone and me-tal (aluminum)  water chassis, modeling simple. The disk is designed with drop type through the plane with concave surface, with height difference of 1.6 cm. The plane is used as dry areas, the concave as wet areas, which cleverly realizes tea-making scenarios of dry and wet depart. Besides, for the concave is lower, so we can visually see the tea overflowing from the drain, which prompts the user dumping of tea.

茶盘一般为一个平面，在使用的时候，茶水到处流淌，使用不便。本设计灵感来源于“桥”，融合了平面与凹面，两者对比呈现“形态的张力”。凹面带来的高度差，既实现了“干湿分离”，又便于排水，同时巧妙提醒储水的状态。

Tea tray is usually plane and tea water flows everywhere when using under the condition, which brings inconvenience. The design inspiration comes from bridge, which integrates plane & concave and presents the tension of shape. The concave brings height difference, which not only realizes dry and wet depart, but also can be easy to drain water, while cleverly reminding the state of water storage.

“适”使用天然石材与铝两种材料。天然石材使用CNC、水刀切割成型技术，表面肌理采用喷砂工艺实现。铝使用模具拉伸、切削技术，铝的表面处理采用哑光烤漆工艺。

SHI is made of natural stone and aluminum. The natural stone is treated by CNC and water knife cutting molding technology, which surface is realized by sandblasting technology. The aluminum is treated by die drawing and cutting technology, which surface is realized by matte painting.

茶盘的平面部分是放置茶具的区域，凹面部分是操作区，平面和凹面形成的高度差可以高效排水。当储水盘内的水到达储水盘内3/4处，使用者可以直观从凹面的最低点观察到水位，便于及时倾倒。

The flat part of the tea tray is placed with the tea set and the concave part is the operating area. The height difference between the plane surface and concave surface allows an efficient drainage. When the water reaches three quarters of the tank, the user can visually observe the water level from the lowest point of the concave surface to facilitate the timely dumping.

该项目于2019年2月在厦门开始，于2019年9月在厦门完成，并于2019年10月在上海展出。

The project was started in xiamen in February 2019, completed in xiamen in September 2019 and exhibited in Shanghai in October 2019.

本茶盘设计属于应用研究，研究目标是在通过最简单的形态语言引导使用者行为，结合用户访谈、焦点小组、产品可用性测试、消费者日记等方法发现达成了预定目标。

The tea tray design belongs to the application research, which object is to guide user behavior through the simplest language form, combining with ways of user interview, focusing group, product usability testing, consumer diary.

天然石材盘面的凹面曲率既要保证造型的实现、排水的高效，又要满足对水位的提示。通过虚拟仿真及实物模型的多次测试，最终确定凹面的曲率半径分别为212mm。

The concave curvature of natural stone plate should not only ensure the high efficiency of drainage, and the realization of modeling, but also satisfy the reminding of water level. Through the virtual simulation and physical model test, the radius of curvature of the concave surface is determined to be 212 mm finally
