Shannon Donnelly L-Chair



For the design I was inspired by curvilinear forms. I wanted to keep the sides open to make the chair more airy and lightweight.
I used the curve tool to make the profile of the chair, then I extracted it to make the L shape. I used the section tool to take curves from the form. I made, then mirrored a curve for the legs of the chair. I piped the curves to different sizes, then joined and filleted them together.
For materials I wanted to contrast the sleek look of the chrome with the neutrals of the wood. I chose to balance the weight of the colors by using one dark and one light wood. I incorporated the industrial look of the chrome in the legs, then in the cross pieces to unify the design.
