(Pretty sure I have to make another logo for this...)
Gel is designed with the same concept of the IKEA POÄNG chairs. When sat in, the weight of the person automatically reclines the chair so it remains suspended. It is attached to the base in the front to comfortably move to provide peaceful relaxation. The colored parts of the chair are made of soft-cell gel with a strong, protective outer coating. The base is plastic but weighted to prevent flipping.

Had issues with patching some holes. Should not be hard but the patches were causing trouble.

Sabina Pareja-Lecaros: Week 9 - Tubular Chair

I  guess that tubular chairs reminded me of one of my favorites architects, Mies Van der Rohe, and his simple yet elegant style. He was my inspiration. When sketching for my tubular chair design I ended up with very similar styles. They all had the characteristic of a serpentine-like metallic tube wrapping shapes around. For my final design I went simple but still innovative, I didn't wanted to make repeated rhythms of tubes so I developed a single metallic structure painted with a camel color. This structure lets the back support to bend enough to get a very comfortable position when seated. The other three element are all made out of black leader and some camel fillets. As we can all observe, the back support has a kind of lung shape. This idea reinforces my chair concept, a chair to seat, be comfortable, close your eyes, breathe and relax.

Daniela Vollmer - Assignment 8: Chair

This is my Rhino ghosted view.
This is my first Keyshot rendering with the isometric logo and the three orthographic projections of my chair. Its name makes reference to its tubular aluminum structure which is made of a single bent piece. The seat is made of a white leather material I created in Keyshot.




This is my second Keyshot rendering with the isometric logo and projection of the chair.

Janae' Javis: Vaquita Chaise

A vaquita is a rare porpoise. This design is inspired by their shape and the underwater ripple effect.  The purpose is to not only design a tubular chair influenced by Greek and Victorian furniture, but also to raise awareness about the endangered species, you can learn more about them from the World Wildlife Fund.
