Nick Tourville- Week 8 Chair

   The Deox chair design is based on DNA. It is a simplistic design meant to be used as a coffee table chair. The center cushion is removable and straps to the bottom of the chair.
   My modeling process began with drawing the curves of the frame and legs and manipulating the control points. I then used Grasshopper to pipe the curves. This process was then repeated for the cross bars. The cushion is a manipulated surface the was extruded and filleted.
   For materials, I knew I wanted a metallic body for the chair. After trying an entirely chrome body, I decided that black chrome for the frame and legs had a more accented look. The cushion has a custom red velvet texture.
