Furniture Update (WEEK 05)

This week, I continued to update my furniture. I have researched for the materials and made the narrative topics to be clear.

Following below is the compiled data and materials I have chosen to suit the purpose.

1. Stainless Steel

It is not conducting heat so it will not hurt customer who sit there . It is also easy and can be formed into certain shape to suit the machine.

2. Brass

Brass is cheaper than copper and it is corrusion resistant, it also a good finishing material and polishing material.

3. Acrylic

It is for safety for people who sit below and it is clear to give the customer certain look of fluidity of hot chocolate. I do not choose glass because it is fragile and can danger the user. Acrylic is also a light-weight material which will not burden much on the supports.

4. Hardwood

I want to choose material that sustainable and heat resistant. Even though wood is not really heat resistant, but at least with hardwood, the combustile level is low. It will also give pleasant look on furniture. Mahogany is best for furniture making.

5. Borosilicate Glass

This material is usually used for cooking/cookware which is good to store the hot chocolate without reducing the temperature. 

6. Velour Fabric

Because I want the cushion to be soft and have similar look with marshmallow, I choose white velour fabric for it which is a material that soft, comfortable, luxurious look and durable.

7. Walnut finishes

It is durable, long lasting wood, highly resistant and polishes well.
