CAD DRAWINGS AND RENDERS
WRITTEN STATEMENT
The chair I have chosen is a great challenge, mainly because it is of great design already and I wish to disassemble all of it and re-interpret all of its structure and materials into another type of chair.
By this I mean that this chair is quite minimalistic, it elegantly uses tubular steel and the minimal use of leather for upholstery and it is of sophisticated environments yet very simple in its shape and manufacture. The chair itself is made in 2 parts the legs and the seating, in which both are bent into shape and then slotted together, the leather, is then attached via screws on the underside and back to hide visually. The form itself is not simply of an object but rather it plays of the manipulation of our visual senses in which it interacts with the light shinning off the chromed metal.
Its presence itself enhances and heightens what sitting really is, and is surprisingly comfortable for surfaces which are mainly flat on the areas of contact, it is a very inspirational work and I would like to take upon some divergent thinking into redesigning and re-interpreting all of its features and functions into a new chair that synchronises with the user.
By the theme of synchronicity I mean that the user does not adapt to the chair, but rather the chair itself adapts to the user, so really what I propose to do with this chair is to transform it into a user adapting chair, a universal chair.
