A project focused on designing a cardboard chair that a person can sit on. Keep scrolling to learn more about the process.

The Challenge

Design and build a chair, with the ability to hold a 200 pound person, made out of cardboard using two sheets of cardboard. 

Study

In order to study chairs and how people sit in them, I performed field operations where I sketched people sitting in chairs. 

Ideation

After initial field observations, I began to come up with ideas for my chair.

Narrowing Down Ideas

After ideation, I narrowed down to five possible ideas that I wanted to go with.

The Final Concept

The Final Model

Cut with an X-ACTO knife, a ruler, a larger cutting mat, and hand-drawn templates--the cardboard chair was constructed.
