PROPHET SOLOMON’S HOOPOE CONSOLE

One of the important references, which the designer intended to draw the inspiration
from; was the surrounding organisms. The designer recalled the bird Hoopoe which is
characterized by its massive speed in flying, agility, and good looking. The designer
dismantled the special construction of the bird to build a new and adopted
morphological shape for the furniture. It consists of a lower part of two shelves and an
upper drawer which represents the bird’s body, its tail and wings. While the upper frame
represents the head of the bird, as the crown of the Hoopoe is characterized by its
turbofan shape which surrounds the mirror. The surrounding Consul lights represented
the spire beak of the bird, while the upper part indicates to the bird’s colored beautiful
feathers. The Consul title was taken from the famous story of a Hoopoe bird with
Prophet Solomon in the Holy Quran.
