Manuel Fernandez Rubio’s Flamingo TV stand was one of the final five designs in Dezeen and Samsung’s QLED TV stand design competition.
The judges said that it was not so much a case of love at first sight with Manuel Fernandez Rubio’s stand design but rather they fell for the details behind the “simple idea and basic mechanics”.
The stand is constructed from a pair of thin L-shaped legs, which give the design its name – Flamingo. The legs are then attached to the TV with a joint mechanism that allows users to change the stand’s height and adjust it easily from wall-mounted to freestanding. Rubio also proposed that users could customise their stand by choosing from a range of colours and materials.
The designer said he saw the target market as young people with secure jobs who consider “technology an important part of their lives and possess the latest gadgets and apps”. He estimates a retail price of €250 to €350 would suit his design.
